The T-Stitch is a good background stitch. It creates a light, lacy look because every other canvas intersection is left unworked. The amount of laciness can be controlled by the weight of the thread -- use a heavier thread for a more solid appearance or a lighter thread for more airiness. 2, record 1, English, - %5C%22T%5C%22%20stitch%20zigzag%20lockstitch
