Pro Tips for Best Results
- Use 100% cotton yarn for crisp stitch definition and enough structural rigidity to hold your curtain’s shape.
- Check that your circle lies flat while working; if it bowls, your tension is too tight, and if it ripples, you have too many increases.
- Ensure any added wooden beads have large enough holes to comfortably thread your yarn or a secondary anchoring cord.
