Cross Stitch for Beginners: The Complete Pattern Guide (English Edition) baixar livro de graça

Cross stitch is having a moment — and it deserves it.
There's something almost radical about pulling thread through cloth in a world of constant screens. Each stitch asks for your hands, your eyes, and a few minutes of genuine presence. The phone goes face-down. The to-do list fades.

You make something small and real.

Cross Stitch for Beginners takes you from never having held a tapestry needle to completing your first ten projects — with the knowledge to keep going from there.

Inside you'll find:

• Every material explained — Aida cloth, DMC floss, needles, hoops — and what you actually need vs. what's nice to have

• How to read any pattern confidently, including color charts, symbols, and fractional stitches

• Step-by-step instructions for the full cross stitch, half stitch, quarter stitch, backstitch, and French knot

• Ten beginner projects from a simple three-inch heart to a detailed floral sampler

• Color theory for stitchers — how to choose, substitute, and combine thread colors so your work reads beautifully

• How to finish and frame your work to display-ready standard

• Troubleshooting chapter covering tangled thread, uneven tension, miscounts, and puckered fabric

Cross stitch scales infinitely — beginners finish satisfying pieces in an afternoon, while master stitchers spend years on works of breathtaking complexity. This book gives you the foundation to start anywhere on that spectrum and grow.

The companion to Needlepoint for Beginners by Clara Moss.
