SK Logan

I have been working on SK Logan for the past two weeks, maybe a bit more than two weeks. And I have been steadily trying to get through the floss I'd pulled out from the "extra" bag. One of which is the massive amount of Krenik 032 #4 braid. It doesn't show up as well in the picture as it does in real life, but you can kind of see where I've gotten with that one. I can see the outline of the cat and his antennae. There's another 8 or 9 (I think) colors along with the Krenik before I have to go scavange floss. Hopefully, I will be able to post another WIP pic soon. I really like how he's coming along. There's 8 weeks and 5 days until the end of the rewards period, I better get back to working on him and Snow if I want them in! I did turn in SK Strength for the rewards program, I'm just waiting for my chart (my guess it's rather busy over at HAED). I picked SK Flower Fairy for that.

Ok, with no further ado, here is my latest on SK Logan!

    Such bright and happy colours. Good luck on trying to get both in the rewards programme. I think HAED is brilliant for offering free designs just for finishing one.

      Thanks Monique, I do too. And it's great advertising for them because we're likely to share that info with friends. And it feels like I'm really earning my charts.

    Any special hints working with the Krenik #4 braid, I find it so difficult - your work is beautiful, good luck finishing in time for the reward.

      Thanks!
      Many times, people will find using shorter lengths will help. As can Thread Heaven. I personally don't use that because I just feel strange putting something on my threads/flosses when I go to such lengths to keep them clean. But that's just me. You could use either a tenting stitch or two strands of blending filaments if you feel it is too bulky for your project/fabric. I've also heard of some people keeping their Krenik in the freezer.
