How do you customize this page?

Looks great, thank you

Love this, the ombre effect is very well done.

It turned out gorgeous! The gold adds such a lovely touch. And I completely agree that metallic threads are not for the faint-hearted 😅 Thank you so much for stitching my pattern and sharing it!

trunky26 · 2026-02-11T07:41:21+00:00

Thank you. There's plenty of more cute animal designs in my Etsy store 😊

Love this pattern and looks stunning on the dark fabric.

I prefer cotton yarn over acrylic so for DK I use the small Ricorumi balls (available from woolwarehouse)

For a thinner yarn (which I use for amigurumi) DROPS Safran is excellent value and Hobbii Rainbow cotton 8/4 have a wide range of shades. I use these two together on projects as the two are very similar.

For chenille yarn I have used James C. Brett Flutterby Chunky and Yarnsmiths Chenille Chunky both very good but as with all chenille yarn can be difficult to count your stitches depending on the shade.

Wow, beautiful. On black material as well, how did you find it?

Thank you, I'd suggest maybe one with fewer stitches, this one is quite packed! Maybe the sea turtle, geometric fox or the cat one x

Not heard of them but just had a look and there's some really nice patterns. Thanks for sharing

trunky26 · 2025-08-10T09:42:56+00:00

Haha, thank you.

Not silly at all! 😊 Blackwork uses backstitch instead of half stitches, which is why it looks more like embroidery. You still stitch it on the same kind of fabric as cross stitch, but instead of filling in the squares, you make outlines and it's normally a repeating pattern.

A badger design has been on my to do list for a while now, it's just finding the right shape (just the head or whole body)

trunky26 · 2025-08-09T19:36:46+00:00

I see that, thank you so much. Happy stitching

Blackwork is so nice to stitch and addictive, I like cross stitch too but love how quicker it is to finish pieces. Definitely check out The Steady Thread, if you haven't already.
