25-count evenweave doing 'over 2 '
Sample of my 25-count evenweave pattern using 'over 2' using 3 strands of floss.
I went 'over 2' because I wanted to enlarge the pattern. Used 3 strands of floss because experimentation showed I have better coverage versus 2 strands.

If you enlarge the picture you'll notice the stitches are a lot more obvious than if you do a 25-count 'over one'. Camera picture was taken approximately 8-10 inches away from project.

Thank you Nita!
Also the picture only shows what is in the frame, it is NOT the total width of the pattern. The width of the pattern continues further to the right beyond the right side of the frame. There aren't any 'cross stitch police" so I have a tendency to decide how large I want the completed pattern size to be and don't always follow the pattern recommendations that come with the pattern.

Bermuda, do you like stitching with 3 strands? I hate uneven numbers. My favorite is two. I will do four depending on the pattern. I'll have to try over one. Do you use 2 over 1?
Beautiful work, B!
