How to use a needlepoint chart:

• Learn how to count your chart/canvas: Always think of the squares as intersections in your needlepoint canvas, instead of the actual holes of the canvas.
• Find the center: To find the center of the canvas and the chart, you can either fold them in 4, or you can use a ruler to cross out the center, by tracing the diagonals.
• Start in the middle, or count to the area where you want to start: Starting in the center is the easiest way to begin stitching with a needlepoint chart, because it's your strongest point of reference.
• Understand the color map: Using the color map you can match each square with the labeled color.
