Counted Crossstitch
Counted Crossstitch
can you write a flowchart for this…?
program spiral;
var length: integer;
var count: integer;
_______________;
begin
_________________;
for count:=1 to ___ do
begin
forward (____________);
length:=(____________);
left (90);
end;
end.
ignore the blank lines. well if you can and know how you can help me out and fill them in. Its suppose to be a square spiral..one of these http://crossstitch.about.com/od/patternsfromyourguide/ig/Cross-Stitch-Squares/Four-Spiral-Square-Pattern.htm
i can’t draw the boxes in answers
and your program only draws 1 such spiral.
to draw the whole diagram, position yourself at (8 OR 18, 8 OR 18) and call this as a subroutine.
count = 0; length – 1
A: if count = 9 Halt
count – count + 1
if count is odd, B:
length = length + 2
B: forward (length)
left(90). A:
after 1, we take 2 turns with each odd length, and end with a single 9. if you want your spiral bigger, change the tet in A:
How many strands of floss should I (crossstitch) stitch with on a 28 count cloth?
Also, what size needles should I work with? I usually cross stitch on a 22 count cloth with 2 strands of floss, but I am wondering if 2 will be too much on the 28. Also, I need a needle suggestion so I don’t stretch out the cloth-thanks!
if you’re stitching over two threads, use two strands of floss. If you’re stitching over one thread, just use one strand of floss. Usually the chart will recommend how many strands of floss to use. As far as needle size, I usually use a 22 needle.
