Draw a border of 1 ½ inches on all four sides of the canvas grid by using a marker. Some kits have already marked this border. This border prevents fraying and leaves to fit the latch hook art to something else, like cloth or pillow.
Step 2
Start with the second to bottom row of the grid. Always make sure to work to the end of the lower row before moving to the upper row.
Step 3
Take the latch hook tool and put yarn underneath it. Then loop the yarn segment around the hook.
