Or is it just called Plastic canvas knitting?
There is no such thing as canvas knitting. But there is plastic canvas embroidery, or commonly known as vinyl weave. This is in imitation of embroidery canvas which is done on cotton canvas. Plastic canvas is also employed in teaching needlepoint and cross stitch to children, since its rigid structure does not require the use of a hoop or frame. Plastic canvas is typically used as a foundation for needlepoint or other canvas work embroidery, usually in acrylic or wool knitting yarn. Due to its rigidity, it is useful for creating 3-dimensional objects such as tissue box covers, small jewelry boxes, handbags, and other decorative objects.
