Web Stitch Instructions & Diagram
You can see the diagram of this stitch below.
- Start making a cross stitch over two by two canvas threads. The top stitch should be the one from top left to bottom right
- Make a diagonal long stitch skipping four canvas intersections, starting two threads down from the bottom left corner of the cross stitch
- Make diagonal stitches (from bottom right to top left) skipping two canvas intersections over the previous long stitch. You should always make these diagonal stitches at the ends of the previous long stitch and the trick to know if you should do it on the inside is to count two canvas holes between each one
