Tips for stitching moon phases
- —
Blend light and dark greens in one needle to create organic leaf variation.
- —

- —
For sky gradients, start with the darkest shade at the top and lighten downward.
- —
Leave a few squares unstitched to suggest highlights on shiny surfaces like water.
Frequently asked questions
How do I choose a fabric count for a landscape pattern?
Wide landscape scenes work best on 14-count for a generous finished size, or 18-count if you want more detail. Tall designs like trees and mountains benefit from 28-count evenweave stitched over two threads.
Can I adjust the grid size in StitchLark?
Yes. After the AI generates your chart you can resize the grid smaller to speed up stitching or larger to add more detail. Stitch counts update automatically so you always know how many stitches you are working with.
What thread count should I use for stitching?
Two strands of DMC floss on 14-count Aida is the standard starting point. Use three strands for a bolder, more opaque look, or one strand for delicate details and backstitching.
