Progress so far.

I'm not the quickest of stitchers, and the fabric is very fine, but here's the progress I've made in the last couple of days. Bear in mind I go to university, spend time in the library reading dull Icelandic sagas, play my computer games and do a million other things every day as well. I'm aiming at one square a day, and it'll be done in about 3 and a half months :)


If anyone's interested, I already mentioned using a fabric with 7 squares to a centimetre. I'm using 2 (out of 6 parts) threads Mouliné yarn and a size 24 blunt tapestry needle.

  3. Väven har alltså 7 rutor per centimeter. Det är sådan där korsstygnsväv som har som små, små rutor så att det ska bli lättare att sy efter mönster :) Det finns olika grovlekar på de här vävarna, jag har valt en som är väldigt fin (med små, små rutor).
