Petit Point is worked using tiny tent needlepoint stitches, which allow a stitcher to create greater detail in a particular area of a needlepoint design. That's why it is stitched on double-thread canvas.Mono or single thread canvas allows for one stitch worked over a vertical and horizontal mesh intersection; which normally would be too large for petit point (unless using the finer mesh sizes). An intersection of Penelope canvas can accommodate four smaller petit point stitches. The petit point is worked over single threads in the center area, vs. standard needlepoint worked in the border area.You should make petit point stitches with the canvas stretched tautly and mounted in a frame. That way, you're able to separate the mesh intersections equally without pulling the surrounding ones out of shape.When working a project, both petit point :eedlepoint can be stitched on the same piece of canvas as long as it is Penelope canvas. When regular needlepoint stitches are made alongside petit point stitches, they are called "gros point."The lid of the box is attached.
