Tips

  • Keep your tension relaxed for easier insertion into the stitch spaces.
  • The Ch 1 at the end of each Elizabeth Stitch is part of the stitch.
  • The Ch 3 at the beginning of each row serves as the turning chain.

The finished Elizabeth Stitch fabric has a delicate puff-like texture and an elegant crossed pattern that looks much more complicated than it actually is!
