Includes a fence cover on which the pattern is printed with water-soluble ink. No need to count the threads. The printing colour is different from the thread colour, so it's easy to see where to sew. The work is 14 ct/ 2 strand, or 5.4 squares/ 1cm, using 2 strands of thread at a time.
The colour is printed in a water-soluble ink, so do not wet the fabric before sewing.
The package does not include a sewing frame.
Please note that the colour printed on the fabric is quite different to the colour of the thread you are sewing, this is to make it easier for you to work/see where to sew.
For a better finish, use the spare stitches to sew the points marked with a solid line in the diagram at the end. Use the same number of thread strands as for the cross stitch.
Finishing:
Once the work is sewn, place the work in water at about 30 degrees for at least 3 hours. The ink will disappear. Rinse the work again.
Leave the work to dry straight. Iron the dried work on the back side with steam, until the work is smooth.
