FINISHING
Weave in all ends. Refer to charts on next page and add details with a duplicate stitch using the cross stitch floss or scrap yarn or decorate with fabric paint. To make Chain stitching: Using a tapestry needle and yarn or floss. Bring needle up from underneath work. Insert needle back into work very close to the point you came up originally This will create your loop or chain. Now bring the needle back up to the top of the work (a little distance away and in the direction you want to go) and insert the needle into the loop and pull yarn through loosely. Continue to make connected loops to create a chain.
