Mirabilia's Cinderella ?

There is a bit of a mystery to me in this design.

There are 3 different symbols for the same floss color.

Does anybody know why this is the case?

Also, when Nora calls for #4 braid, do you know if I should use 1 strand or
two? I use two in my own designs, but it's unclear to me what Nora wants.

TIA,

Caryn

If you wanted more of the metallic coverage, why not just use one strand of
#8? Easier than threading 2 of #4, and would look more even. IME, metallics
of that type are usually listed in 1 strand for stitching. Else, you'd just
select the next larger size. If you're doing it on 32 ct, I'd definitely
only use 1 of #4, but on 28 ct, IME, you could do 2 of #4, or 1 of #8.

That's a nice chart - have fun stitchin' it.

whine but I already bought the #4!


ROFL

I think I'll try it with just one strand, if I don't like coverage I'll redo
with two.

I was just curious if anybody knew Nora's first choice.

Doesn't Nora have a garden of her own? You could ask. But, you know the
answer - I'd bet it's one strand of #4.

Watch that whinefest - don't want a habit - LOL

But not tooo good. BTW - what color Kreinik is it? I might be willing to
swap some stash - I have a lot of Kreinik on hand right now ;^)


Um...it's at least 4 colors, and as I have them now I'll use them! lol

Besides, I have to go buy at least 4 spools of 002 as it is! lol
