    Using three strands, do you run out of thread and have to order more?

    I live near a Hobby Lobby, Michael’s and JoAnn so it is easy if I do. But I usually just get an additional skein of the colors there are a ton of and that’s it.

    That is amazing! I love the design - and I'm not surprised it's Disney!! It's always nice to have something to do while waiting. I always brought my knitting to my son's tae kwon do lessons. I got a lot done!

    I currently stitch while sitting in the car rider line in the afternoon - it's quiet and I listen to podcasts . . .

    This is the one I'm working on currently:

    This is how far I've gotten . . . the finished piece will be 19.25x26.5 . . . this is the biggest one I've done yet. And it's the first one where I've only used 1 thread instead of 2. This kit comes with the thread and symbols, but doesn't give you the DMC numbers (it's to avoid people copying the pattern and distributing it), so I couldn't change the number of threads to use or I would have run out of thread.

    I love it because it is rather mindless to me and I don’t have to think as much as I do when scrapping.

    Yes! That is what makes it so awesome! Fun but easy to do while watching TV etc.
