Hello my dear needleworkers, I am very happy to meet again on our Needle Monday. For today's post I bring you a small bag woven with the cross stitch technique. It is a souvenir style bag that can be used to make a birthday gift or for any other special occasion.
To make this bag I chose a simple design, the typical heart pattern ideal for beginners. I also wanted to briefly show you the difference between the Cross Stitch technique and Tapestry Crochet. In a next post I will explain it in more detail for now I will focus on making the bag.
- Hilo acrílico
- Tijeras
- Aguja de tejer # 0

Pair of scissors

Primero se tejen los puntos de base de acuerdo a la cantidad que indica el patrón.
- Cada cuadro vacío equivale a 1 punto alto, 1 cadena, 1 punto alto.
- Cada cuadro con una X equivale a 3 puntos altos.
For the cross stitch technique the double crochet and the chain stitch are used.
First the base stitches are knitted according to the amount indicated by the pattern.
- Each empty square equals 1 double crochet, 1 chain, 1 double crochet.
- Each square with an X equals 3 high points.
The fabric must be tight so that the figure becomes more visible.
After completing the heart design, 3 rows of empty squares are woven and then a cord to close the bag.
And we already have a woven bag that we can fill with sweets to make a simple detail.
