Where was cross stitch invented?
I make coasters and greeting cards using cross-stitch inserts. Cross stitch is commonly used to decorate baby clothing, such a bibs and quilts. It is also used extensively on women's clothing on collars, sleeves, and necklines. Cross stitching is often used to accentuate seams on slacks and vests. An over-all cross stitch pattern is used to decorate placemats, table cloths, and bedspreads, and cross stitch wall hangings. It is also very popular on Christmas stockings and to accent gift items. Counted cross stitch has been around for centuries and young girls in the early 1800's used linen and thread to create samplers of words and sayings. There are samplers from young girls as young as eight or ten that are surfacing at antique auctions and drawing big bucks. Cross Stitch can be either counted (where you use a paper pattern and count the stitches onto Aida or Linens) or stamped cross stitch meaning it is stamped on a fabric and you stitch over the inked area.

When i knit do i have to make a slip knot?
I take it that your problem with the slip knot is that it is too tight on the edge when the piece is finished. Yes, you must have a slip knot to start the work, but instead of counting that slip knot stitch as your stitch, simply add an extra stitch in the opposite direction and don't work the original slip knot. The advantage of this method is that the entire work will be an even edging without that annoying "pull" to the edge.So what to do with that dangly stitch? When you are done, untie the slip knot, and weave it into the selvage it is on. It eliminates the pull, hides the end, and you will be much happier with the results.The other option is to learn the double cast method of casting on. While it still involves a slip knot, it is at the other end of the row, and for me, it won't get too tight *because* it is at the other end. That is, I won't pull it too tight while I am knitting.

How do you make a tomboy stitch?
A tomboy stitch is also known by other names: French knitting, i-cord, or tomboy stitch. You can make your own "french knitting" machine, by using Popsicle sticks (as is done in one of the attached links), and I have seen knitting machines to make i-cords, which is another name for tomboy stitch. I have also found another type of cord--a Lucet cord, which is more of a squared cord, rather than a round cord. Attached is a link to a YouTube video for making a Lucet cord.
How do you make a butterfly stitch?
If you want to make the butterfly stitch real bad, I bet you've already googled up some tutorial sites, but they just don't work out. It's actually simpler than you can imagine. All you have to do is make loops into loops, just like the beginning of the tutorials. Then just keep on adding loops and loops inside them, but be careful, a common mistake (just like the kind I made when I'm doing this stitch) is that you have to do everything in a pattern. That means if you overlap and make a loop from under the loop, then you have to keep on doing that when you make other loops otherwise you won't have a pattern. sure if you understand the tutorials you can follow along that. but be careful not to make a mistake or you'll have to start all over!
