2019/2020 NYE Mystery SAL - Part 9

Welcome to the ninth part and day two of the NYE Mystery SAL! At the time of writing this it's late o'clock on Friday/Saturday night and I'm way too tired to stitch so I haven't stitched part 8 yet - so for this post you will have to make do with another computer generate image. Things have not exactly gone to plan as they say (for starters my kids were extra needy and cut into my planned stitching/post creating time) but I'm sure I'll be all caught up by the time part 10 needs to be posted.

It got pretty dotty in the borders and then you got some kind of circle in the middle... feel free to guess what's going on there!

The last new colour was used this time - please note that it looks exactly like Colour F, except its not Etoile but its plain DMC.

Remember to check the information sheet on the pattern for pointers as to where new stitches are added and count carefully! Also don't forget which way is up - I forgot last Mystery SAL and had to do a bit of ripping...

DET stands for DMC EToile - when making the palette for Etoile in PCStitch I wasn't allowed to re-use DMC as a code so I had to pick something else.

Colour used this time

• Colour C (DMC 798 on the pattern)

Number of stitches:

• 80 - in Colour C

For a total of 80 stitches for this part.

You can find the pattern here

See you for the next part of the mystery in 4 hours!

I do not expect anyone to be able to be up to date at all times during the SAL - you need to eat and sleep at the very least so expect to be "behind" part - if not all - of the time! It's part of the nature of this type of SAL for this to happen, so being "behind" is the normal state of affairs. If you are a slow stitcher expect to finish "after" the SAL has "finished" - though tbh the SAL is always available and new people find the patterns on a regular basis so it's never really over.
