Garden Of Eden Kit<\/p><\/div>\n

There’s another Thistle Threads<\/a> course starting, a book cover called “Eve In The Garden Of Eden<\/a>“, and I was highly intrigued by it.<\/p>\n

I was even more intrigued by two of the items that came with the first kit. They look rather like double ended knitting needles, but the picture doesn’t seem to included anything knitted. The kit also includes an assortment of gimps, a gold thread, and a wonderful selection of silk floss. I’ve fallen in love with silk thread since I started following Tricia’s courses, and while I still find uses for my cotton, linen, and wool, silk is always a treat.<\/p>\n

Getting Started<\/p><\/div>\n

The first stage is all in tent stitch. The fabric is 30 count, which is fine enough to that I have been using both my goosenecked magnifier, and my magnifying glasses. This is the central panel of the spine. I’ve decided to enlarge the chart before I do any of the colour stitches, because the chart is a bit small, but I’m rather pleased with it so far.<\/p>\n

I’m going to try to keep up with this course, because I’ve just seen that there is a Stumpwork Lion course being planned, and he looks wonderful!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
