this is weird but
my cross stitch needles keep wearing through the plating?? like my fingers wear down the metal till it gets to the different metal inside? and it leaves my fingers smelling metallic?
I hate it
does anyone know about needles that won’t do this?
i usually use silver-toned needles, if that helps. idk what brand.

Added some new shades of green, I’m not sure whether I like the green in the pattern yet, but I’m gonna stick with it since I’ve started it :)

Partner M had surgery a couple days ago and I’m just stretched thinner than I can adequately explained. I’ll try and keep things queued but chances are everything will be sporadic for awhile. Thank you guys for your continued patience.

Managed to design and stitch in a day, which was really refreshing for things to go smoothly!

So i’ve started on my final nephew’s stocking! The pattern is from Best of Stoney Creek Stockings I, and the little boy pattern is from the magazine, Creation Point de Croix, hors-serie 13. (i’m not linking to the patterns because people have told me that links keep you out of the main search function? if you want links just message me)
some of the considerations i made for the redesign (Left) compared to the original (Right) was that my brother was very adamant that all the stocking toes point the same direction, which in this case was not as easy as just mirror imaging the entire stocking because of the peace on earth message. Then i had to try to make sure that this stocking was close to the same size as his siblings’ so that there wouldn’t be favoritism complaints later on. So the stocking ended up a bit fatter and taller and the toe facing a new direction.
I also cut most of the holly off the stocking because I love myself.

Does anyone know the name of this technique?
You thread a single thread below the x of a stitch to decrease the amount of cloth showing through? i mostly use it with large black areas on white cloth when i am too lazy to increase my thread amount in the needle.
