Diagonal Mosaic Stitch Instructions & Diagram

You can see the diagram of this stitch below. 

  • Secure the thread at the back of the canvas by tying a small knot and insert the needle from the back of the canvas to the front.
  • Go diagonally upwards to the right, just passing through an intersection of the canvas and insert the needle from the front to the back.
  • Move the needle down to the canvas hole just below the first stitch and insert it.
  • Move two canvas threads vertically downwards and one canvas thread horizontally to the left and insert the needle from back to front, passing through a canvas intersection and inserting the needle again in the opposite direction.
  • Repeat the steps alternating a stitch skipping one canvas intersection and a stitch skipping two canvas intersections.
