This one seems a perfect fit for this project. But what did I say about going slow? After the first length was used up, I got hasty and tried to use all six ply + two strands of bright blue rayon (wayward shit on a good day). Snag city, each stitch a pain in the ass.
So back to splitting the six and doubling each half, adding in whatever silly business I can cram through the needle's eye as the mood moves me.
and don't forget a slash of Thread Magic. Strange and wonderful stuff.

LOVE. i still use just a single strand. one of six. And then as many back an forth stitches as is needed to create the thing i need.
I am so Good with this. It is so smooth and perfect an effect for
whatever it is...leaf, bark, bit of magical essesce
i love that you are stitching with them, however impatiently
I read that Grace used a single thread and so I tried it-- liked it. I also enjoy two threads and even three but with three threads means things bunched up. And I--once used one thread this way and a second the opposite way to "get more magic".
But I am like Grace--not wanting the magic thread to get used up-- as it's one of a kind.
Go crazy. There will be more come spring.
love your wild colours!
Love the "dirty thread" colors!!!
Mighty beautiful color! The bane of my existence is threading needles (don't ask why-just IS).
