I started my first cross stitch tonight. And after fighting with the floss at first (getting two strands from the six put together) it went pretty well, if I say so myself. The floss in the kit is quite long and I did use two strands, I didn't have any tangling but I can see that happening (especially if there are nosy cats around). So during my next session I'll double up one thread.
It's like diamond painting for me, just as relaxing, but on a smaller scale. Sure, there are smaller DPs but they aren't very clear. Cross stitching I can do in bed when watching TV, if the story line isn't too complicated I can follow it. At least I did with the two crappy horror films I watched tonight.
