Pyramid Stitch (Diagram 1):
Bring the needle up at A, move up and to the right over eight canvas intersections, bring the needle down at B. Bring the needle up at C, move up over eight canvas threads and to the right over six canvas threads, bring the needle down at D. Bring the needle up at E, move up over eight canvas threads and to the right over four canvas threads, bring the needle down at F. Bring the needle up at G, move up over eight canvas threads and to the right over two canvas threads, bring the needle down at H. Bring the needle up at I, move up over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at J. Bring the needle up at K, move up over eight canvas threads and to the left over two canvas threads, bring the needle down at L. Bring the needle up at M, move up over eight canvas threads and to the left over four canvas threads, bring the needle down at N. Bring the needle up at O, move up over eight canvas threads and to the left over six canvas threads, bring the needle down at P. Bring the needle up at Q, move up and to the left over eight canvas intersections, bring the needle down at R. Now, continue on to Diagram 2...
Pyramid Stitch (Diagram 2):
Beginning where we left off at R, we will now finish the second half of the pyramid stitch. Bring the needle up at S, move up over six canvas threads and to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at T. Bring the needle up at U, move up over four canvas threads and to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at V. Bring the needle up at W, move up over two canvas threads and to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at X. Bring the needle up at Y, move to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at Z. Bring the needle up at AA, move down over two canvas threads and to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at BB. Bring the needle up at CC, move down over four canvas threads and to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at DD. Bring the needle up at EE, move down over six canvas threads and to the left over eight canvas threads, bring the needle down at FF. This will return us to the A/B stitch, where we began, thus completing the pyramid stitch. Diagram 3 demonstrates the diamond shaped pyramid stitch.
