According to the textbook, cross-hatching is when multiple lines are placed at various angles to one another and produces a wide range of grays (Page 7).

When I was younger in elementary school, I use to color by cross-hatching because it made the colors look even. In this textbook, however, cross-hatching is a way of using lines to contour. Lately, I've been trying to draw lines with single strokes instead of sketching because I think sketching makes my lines look like they're hairy.
