I really like the both of them. I don't want to go to the main site as I would buy something I just know it but that butterfly is so beautiful.

Can I say WOW too. That is fab. Are you doing it in the colors they suggest? As I looked at it Iwas picturing it in blues and greens. My fav color is green and I think those colors are great but if I did it I would chose soft greens and fading into blues.

I decided to go with their colourway, 'tho must say it never occurred to me not to.

The design is easy and clear (over 9 pages). Only criticism is that the design only shows overlap on one of the pages rather than on both, which is what I'm more used to. However, only had to unpick once. So far, that is!

What a fantastic pattern! I love the colours too. I generally use the colours recommended too.

Wow! Serinde, that's beautiful!! How long have you been working on yours?

I started it on holiday at the end of June. I have just over half the knotwork done. When I have time to sit down with it, it works quickly because there is relatively little actual counting. The only frustration comes with the threads, which have a mind of their own...
