Frequently asked questions
What is the fabric count?
The number of stitches (or holes) per inch. The higher it is, the smaller and finer the design.
How is the size computed?
Size = stitch count ÷ fabric count, in inches (then converted to cm).
Why a margin?
A 3-inch border on each side helps with the hoop and the final framing.
