Best Answer

The three most popular are aida cloth, evenweave and linen. Waste canvas is used to cross-stitch on clothing, and perforated paper, plastic, and cardboard are often used for ornaments. Your question was "the usual cross-stitch canvas", so I won't go into all the other fabrics that are also usable.

Any even-weave fabric. Aida is usually the least expensive but Hardanger and Linens are also nice.
