Handy Cross-Stitch Calculator

Patterns and Cloth Ordered

I’m probably the only one who doesn’t know this and I thought I knew the answer yesterday but this morning, I’ve been so confused.

If a pattern says it is going to be 60 stitches high and 170 stitches long, and stitch over two threads, I was having the hardest time being sure I knew what size fabric I needed. It’s kinda like daylight savings time . . and you know how I struggled with that! About the time I thought I knew in my head what I needed to do, it was lost before it got to the computer to place an order.

So, I googled it and found this calculator. Perfect! Answer is there and I don’t have to rely on my own brain.

    I had no idea that there was such a thing. I have now bookmarked it for future reference. Thanks for doing the searching.
