Use a seam ripper instead! Less chance of catching the fabric

Excellent suggestion, Cheryl! I bet Margery has one around the house
somewhere. Though, whether or not she'll let Freddyboy get his hands on
it is anyone's guess! lolol

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.

I like the pointy type exacto blade. I nip the top of the cross stitch and
then use a needle to pickout the threads.
The nipping part is quite simple, lay the exacto blade flat, insert the
pointy end under the stitch and the rotate the blade until the sharp part
faces upwards and cuts through the stitch. The sharp part doesn't get
anywhere near the ground fabric so it can't cut it.
