Needlepoint Stitch Guide for Pooh Bear and Friends

Pooh Bear needlepoint
This design was stitched by a clever Poppy Monk customer. Here are the stitches used on this model.

We suggest you stitch the detail first (all the Tent stitch areas in the model) and finish with the decorative stitches.

The surface embroidery on Christopher Robin and Pooh Bear is a Backstitch, applied at the end, over the underlying stitches.

Eeyore's mane is French knots.

Eeyore's tail is a few Brick stitches. This could also be French knots

Grass—Stepped Darning Stitch:


Work this in rows like a darning stitch. The pattern repeat is over 3 then over 2. Note the pattern adjustment (moves one stitch) every four rows.
