Beginners Technique - How to Create a Bargello Stitch

Step 1: Start in the bottom left-hand corner of the canvas and ‘come up’ slowly, catching around an inch of the thread before you pull it all the way through.

 

Step 2: For this example, each stitch is a ‘count’ of 6, this means your needle will come up through the canvas at ‘1’ and go back down again at ‘6’.

 

Step 3: Continue with your pattern, ‘stepping’ up the canvas.
