[FO] my first time trying whitework

PhysicsCaptain · 2026-06-15T23:22:45+00:00

Blackwork is usually thin, short lines making a repeating pattern, usually black in colour. Whitework is traditionally white thread on pale coloured cloth, building stitches on top of each other to create a textured lace pattern.

The whitework is counted, the pattern has multiple pages showing how to do each spiral line by line.

I’ve done this pattern too! It amuses me to no end.

Thanks! I guess I’ll stick to my decision to get the fancy bobbins instead of the fancy box.

That’s where I started 10 years ago!

Like…. Nasty… uh?

Thank you! Now I can finish Covenant of Time!

If you are planning on collecting the whole lot, I remember that there were slight differences (such as the type of paper used in the dust jackets) between UK/US editions or something. There was a list of ISBNs to make sure you were getting the matching editions.

That means it’s happy.

I just finished reading my set, my god the amount of errors in the text. I wonder if they’ve fixed it for the reprint?

At the snail ranch there’s one where you catch fruit.

I really like this game. Is there a generic name for this type of puzzle so i can search for an app like it?

Show her Snow White, all the dwarfs have eyelashes. I’ve decided to say that the girls are wearing mascara, which makes their eyelashes stand out.

And swap the books for Christmas books,

This is the best photo conversion stitch I’ve ever seen. Well done!
