THE ESSENTIAL KIT YOU’LL NEED TO START STITCHING
NEEDLES
For basic stitching you’ll need a tapestry needle that has a blunt tip and large eye. Use a size 24 needle for most aidas, and a size 26 for evenweaves and linens. Use a sharp embroidery needle for finer details such as backstitch and French knots.
EMBROIDERY SCISSORS
Embroidery scissors are an absolute must-have. Keep yours sharp by only using them to cut threads.
