I just recently took up cross stitching. You can learn all the basics for free on YouTube and there are tons of cross stitching communities online and there are tons of free patterns online too. All the supplies you need at first are some thread, some Aida cloth and needles. When I started I got a stitching hoop too I think my total investment was about $20.

Well hey fancy seeing you here ๐Ÿ˜„

It is my sworn duty to drop the community link wherever it's relevant so please don't mind me jumping on your comment.

!lemmy_stitch@sh.itjust.works <-- we have cute cross stitch, satanic cross stitch, occasional embroidery, and at least once we've accidentally had crochet too!

I'm working on some new pieces now so hopefully I'll have something else to post soon!
