There are only three basic stitches to learn, the cross stitch, the half cross stitch, and the backstitch. It couldn't be easier. The main rule is to always ensure that your stitches are uniform. The first half of the stitch should always slant in the same direction throughout the whole project. Different cross - stitchers do the backstitch in various manners.
