Several people are stitching along with
this counted cross stitch project.
I've had a few questions, so I thought it might
be helpful to answer them here.
I am working on 28ct Cashel Linen in the
"Country Mocha" finish.
I like a slightly more pronounced stitch,
so I am using 2 threads over 2.
I haven't changed any of the colors
that the Designer, Beth Twist, has chosen.
She does offer a DMC conversion,
for those that prefer to use DMC...
however, be aware that using DMC instead
of the hand dyed threads will change the overall
"Old World" look that this piece offers.
I am stitching this piece using a 12 in. hoop.
I tend to have more trouble counting threads,
when I stitch out of hand, so a hoop is perfect
for me. (An Ott light is seriously needed, too !)
Having said that, you can choose to stitch
any way that feels comfortable to you.
If you might be considering stitching along with us,
please do, we would love to have you join us !
