My current cross stitch project is my biggest project yet. Because of all the details and different stitch counts I have been using a hoop. Once the project requires the hoop to be moved, do you hook the hoop over the already made stitches? Wont that ruin the stitches? I am just not sure how to go about moving the hoop around now that stitches are already made. I will share a picture showing how I am getting closer to the edges.

The hoop can be moved and clamped over stitches already made as long as the base beneath those stitches is not stretched.

Krista -- what is the diameter of the hoop? I have an 8 inch hoop I could send you if it is larger than yours. I don't need my hoops since arthritis doesn't allow hand sewing anymore.
