The bi-coloured cross stitch is a variation on the cross stitch, in which yarns in two colours are used, one for each of the basic elements that form the cross. This type of stitch is used for both counted thread and free-style embroidery. It is sometimes known as a chequered/checked cross stitch. GVE
