When you’ve finished all the cross
stitches, load your needle with one
strand of grey thread. Following the
backstitch line on the chart, make
your stitches as in this diagram. Bring
your needle up at 1, down at 2, then
back up at 3, stitching in a two steps
forward, one step back motion. Use
short thread lengths to keep it neat
and to prevent fuzzing with wear.
