Description

There is one odd characteristic that is hard to recreate in the Middle Ages. I have been a vegetarian for over 20 years. My persona, therefore, is basically a very religious person who is always honoring the Lenten diet.

For us modern needle workers, however, we have become used to working with patterns worked out precisely onto graph paper. Whether I'm doing cross stitch or black work, I prefer having reliability, to be able to count my stitches. But, just be aware that this wasn't the way that our great ancestors used to do it! Working with designs on a grid was something that was not figured out until the 1800's. Yes, there were pattern books, but they were simply outlines or cartoons, not done on a graph.
