I'm not sure, but yours looks mirrored, so does the backside look better?

@NerdyPotato that's what I thought. Seems cool either way

May be colour combinations

@Sonuraaj2019 I messed the grey up big time

Sonuraaj2019 · 36-40, M

@MiraRoss you try with different colours combination

you either have the sheet backward
(dog facing the other way)

or you are hooking and looping backward
(finished product should look like a fuzzy bath mat)

@RoxClymer how am I to know what colour to do if it's backwards 🤷

@MiraRoss it's been a Long time since I did this as a kid but back then the nylon wires the frame was made up of were colored, so you could see the color from both sides

Maybe the yarn is not all the same length? It looks kind of crooked on the bottom? I’m sure once you’re finished though no one will notice 🤷‍♀️

I love doing those btw - I haven’t in years though

@sassy1 me like a dafty did white on the outside bit and your not ment too

If you don't get useful responses here maybe try a specialist community like the cross stitch subreddit? Because I don't know a damn thing lmao

The finished product should still look good.
