CRAFTS WITH ANASTASIA--KISS ME, I'M IRISH CROSS STITCH

For the Irish in all of us, here's a quick cross stitch project for St. Patrick's Day.

CRAFTS WITH ANASTASIA - CROSS STITCHED CELTIC KNOT

I haven’t featured a cross stitch pattern in some time. Show off your Irish pride with this quick and easy Celtic knot. The finished size when stitched on 14-ct. fabric is approximately 2-3/8” x 2-3/8”. Use two strands of floss to cross stitch.

I chose three shades of blue green embroidery floss, but feel free to choose any three shades of green you like.

Here are some stitching ideas:

Stitch the design on a piece of perforated paper. Trim the paper to one hole from the cross stitch. Glue on a pin back.

Use waste canvas to embellish the collar of a blouse.

Stitch a row of Celtic knots on a pre-made baby bib, guest towel, sachet, bookmark, napkins, or other ready-to-stitch products available from DMC/Charles Craft.
