This stitch is indicated on your chart by a right-angled triangle. The first half of the cross stitch is formed in the usual way, but the second ‘quarter’ stitch is brought across and down into the central hole (Fig 9). The rule of having the bottom stitches always slanting in the same direction is thus sometimes broken, but by bringing the ‘quarter’ stitch over the top, the longer bottom stitch is anchored down firmly giving a neater effect. Where the chart indicates two three-quarter stitches together, these are worked sharing the same central hole and occupying the space of one whole cross stitch. Fig 10 shows a charted combination of full cross stitch and three-quarter cross stitch.
