Once Adobe Flash Player is installed on your computer you will be able to watch videos on Cross & Stitch.

If you are using Cross & Stitch at work, some corporate firewalls may prevent you from seeing Adobe Flash videos or from downloading the latest version of Adobe Flash Player. In this case you may want to speak to your IT department.
