Discover all different ways you can create cats! Alpha-Cats Cat Antics Cat Characters Includes instruction on how to correctly prepare embroidery floss! Step 1 Hold the skein of embroidery floss with the label positioned between your fingers. Slowly pull one end. Step 2 Cut a 16-20 in (40–50 cm) long piece. Step 3 Separate the individual strands. Step 4 Realign the number of strands needed to stitch the design. Always separate the strands, even when using all six strands as this practice prevents the thread from knotting. Learn all different kinds of stitching! Running Stitch A. Draw the needle out at 1. Insert at 2 and draw it out again at 3 in one movement. B. Continue making a couple stitches at a time. Take care to keep the spacing consistent between stitches. Straight Stitch A. Draw the needle out at 1 and insert at 2. One straight stitch is complete. B. To make the next stitch, draw the needle out at 3 and insert at 4 Chain Stitch A. Draw the needle out at 1. Wrap the floss around the needle tip. Insert the needle at 2 (this is actually the same hole as 1), then draw the needle out again at 3. B. Pull the needle and floss through the fabric until a small loop remains. The first chain is now complete. Insert the needle back through the same hole at 4. C. Use the same process to draw the needle tip out at 5 and complete the next chain. D. To finish a row of chain stitch, insert the needle back through the fabric, making a tiny straight stitch to secure the final chain, as shown by 8.
