LEVEL 1 - #04 “SMYRNA CROSS STITCH" The Smyrna Cross Stitch, also known as the Double Cross Stitch or Railway Stitch, holds a storied history as a variation of the basic Cross Stitch. Crafted by forming two diagonal stitches that intersect at the center and then an upright Cross overtop, it creates a square shape. Originating from traditional embroidery practices, it has graced samplers for generations, valued for its versatility and texture, particularly as a border stitch. Its defining characteristic lies in its adaptability, allowing it to be used with various fiber types, from embroidery floss to specialty threads.
