a type of embroidery that involves creating designs on fabric using counted stitches
Counted-thread embroidery is a technique where stitches are made on fabric with a regular grid pattern, where each stitch is placed according to a counted pattern or chart. The fabric is typically woven with a visible grid of threads, which helps in counting and placing each stitch accurately. This method is often used for creating detailed, symmetrical designs and patterns.
