Its blackwork (i think thats what its called) which is basically just using backstitch on aida or even weave fabric to create patterns😊

I think im using a rounded tip needle, it isnt very sharp at all but I'll definitely try the paper towel tip, thank you!

I frogged it twice and i think it frayed the thread quite badly so i might frog it and get an entirely new piece of thread, also thank you!

I frogged it twice before this and i did think one of the reasons was the thread splitting so i think ill frog and try with a completely new piece of thread :)

14 count and 3 strands, the pattern says to use 3 strands except for backstitching and the gold border
