New Stitch Monday With Twist – Week 7

New Stitch Monday With Twist – Week 7

This week I decided I needed to add some Bargello stitches that I have never done to the Raymond Crawford “NEEDLEPOINT” canvas. For the letter “P” I did the Florentine stitch. With all of the books that I have purchased over the years I found this stitch in “The Pattern Library – Needlepoint” book that my mom bought for a $1.00 at some tag sale.

I used Splendor S983 (4 strands for 18 count) and Neon Rays Plus 135. The beauty of this stitch is that you can add several colors to your pattern. It was easy to compensate and I really like the way it came out.

I hope you can add this to your new stitches list for 2021. Give it a try!

Happy Stitching – Stephanie
