Two-Sided Cross Stitch (Diagram 1):
Bring the needle up at A, move up and to the right over two canvas intersections (remember, you will be using four canvas intersections), bring the needle down at B. The dotted lines indicate where the yarn will be on the back of the piece. Bring the needle up at C, move up and to the right over two canvas threads, bring the needle down at D. Now, continue on to Diagram 2...
Two-Sided Cross Stitch (Diagram 2):
Beginning where we left off at D, we will now move down to E. The dotted lines indicate where the yarn will be on the back of the piece. Since this is the end of the row, the lines are verticle. Although not shown here, it is best to end the row at the end of the piece to preserve the continuity of the stitches. Bring the needle up at E, move up and to the left over two canvas intersections, bring the needle down at F. Again, the dotted lines indicate where the yarn will be on the back of the piece. Bring the needle up at G, move up and to the left over two canvas intersections, bring the needle down at H. Now, continue on to Diagram 3...
Two-Sided Cross Stitch (Diagram 3):
Beginning where we left off at H, we will now work the cross stitch in between the first two cross stitches. Bring the needle up at G, move up and to the right over two canvas intersections, bring the needle down at F. The next move would be to bring the needle up at E, and continue in the same manner as the first series of stitches. The stitches that are created in the first journey to the right will be crossed in the second journey to the left, as we did in the first two diagrams.
