Counted cross stitch supplies and a little knowledge is all you need to learn how to cross stitch. Cross stitch is about stitching on a fabric that is much like a grid. For the most part you make an X over the grid just like on graph paper, hence the name "Cross Stitch." The counting comes in when you read a pattern or chart. You begin in the center of your pattern and in the center of your fabric and count up or down on the grid to know where to place your stitch.
