Extractions: A.2 How to Find the FAQs Counted cross stitch has few rules. The main one is to enjoy yourself. You may follow or ignore any of the tips listed in this FAQ and still be a "real" cross stitcher. People often learn to do counted cross stitch on aida and later learn to stitch on linen or other evenweaves as they become more experienced. Many stitchers who know how to work on linen prefer it to aida. As always though, this is a matter of personal choice. Some very experienced stitchers prefer aida. An evenweave is any fabric which has the same number of threads per inch in both the vertical and horizontal directions. The individual threads might not all be the same thicknessyou can see this in linenbut the number of threads are the same. Aida is worked with one X over one square, while linen and other evenweaves are generally worked over two threads. This means that a 28 count (28 threads per inch) linen produces the same size picture as a 14 count (14 squares per inch) aida. See section "

Extractions: A.2 How to Find the FAQs There are many, many styles or techniques for counted thread work and embroidery. Most are centuries old, and have been in and out of fashion more than once. This list is far from complete. Any additions to this list or to the descriptions are welcome. Assisi Work is a form of embroidery where the background is stitched around an unstitched silouette design, which is outlined in backstitch to further define it. One particularly lovely form employes subtle shading of the background threads to me, it looks like a sunrise backlighting the subject. These designs can be particularly lovely. Contrary to popular opinion, Assisi work is not the opposite of Blackwork. In most Assisi work, the background is worked in a plain filling stitch, normally cross-stitch. The outlining in Assisi work is normally Backstitch rather than double running stitch, because backstitch makes a smoother line. (Note, Assisi work is done using a blunt needle. Double running stitch is best done using a sharp needle so that the second pass of stitches can split the threads of the first path to make a smooth line. Double running stitch done with a blunt needle will have the adjacent stitches not match exactly at the ends, where the threads must pass beside each other at the 'holes'.)
