  Aida cloth - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Aida cloth is a coarse, open-weave, even-weave fabric traditionally used for cross-stitch embroidery.
Aida cloth is manufactured with various size spaces or holes between the warp and weft to accommodate different thicknesses of yarn or thread.
The general consensus there is that the cloth was originally named "Java Cloth", and the name was changed to "Aida Cloth" (possibly for marketing purposes) some time around the turn of the 20th century.

 Embroidery - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In counted-thread embroidery, patterns are created by making stitches over a pre-determined number of threads in the foundation fabric.
Counted-thread embroidery is more easily worked on an even-weave foundation fabric such as embroidery canvas, aida cloth, or specially woven cotton and linen fabrics although non-evenweave linen is used as well.
Elaborately embroidered clothing, religious objects, and household items have been a mark of wealth and status in many cultures including ancient Persia, India, Byzantium, medieval England (Opus Anglicanum or "English work"), and Baroque Europe.
