Double Cross Stitch (Diagram 1):
Bring the needle up at A, move up and to the left over 4 canvas intersections and bring the needle down at B. Bring the needle up at C, move up and to the right over 4 canvas intersections and bring the needle down at D. Bring the needle up at E, move up 2 canvas threads and bring the needle down at F. Bring the needle up at G, move to the right over 2 canvas threads and bring the needle down at H. Basically, this pattern consists of one large cross stitch, followed by 1 small upright cross stitch. This pattern repeats from left to right for the first row and then right to left for the second row and so on... Now move on to diagram 2.
Double Cross Stitch (Diagram 2):
As previously stated in Diagram 1, this stitch is worked left to right and then right to left, alternating each row. Diagram 2 demonstrates where each stitch in the second row will meet each stitch in the first row. You may choose to work all of the large cross stitches first and then work all of the small upright stitches in between. Either way is fine.
