Heritage Craft kits and patterns come from England. More experienced stitchers generally just “eyeball” their work and know where they left off. Some chose to laminate their pattern before beginning and use an erasable marker to mark of the areas they have already stitched.

Some people use a highlighter and mark off the section they are stitching on their pattern as they go along. There are various methods for keeping track of where you are on your pattern or chart. For tips on working the more difficult patterns, please see the bottom of this page, "Tips for working a large pattern". Patterns come in varying degrees of difficulty, and are often labeled as such. There are many, many, many different cross stitch pattern designers to choose from. Some of my favorite kits come from Dimensions, Permin of Copenhagen, Thea Gouverneur, Riolis, and Lanarte.įor more experienced cross stitchers, pick out your own pattern and fabric for a more unique piece. There are even kits designed especially for kids and beginners by Dimensions and Permin. Kits come in varying degrees of difficulty.

Most kits also include some basic cross stitch instructions. Kits come with all the necessary materials (fabric, floss, needle, etc.) other than a hoop. If this is your first cross stitch project, I suggest buying a small kit.
