I purchased a Janlynn kit which calls for 1 ply for crossstitch on 14ct. Aida. I have always used 2. Has anyone ever changed the ply the kit calls for.

    Sue,
    I go by fabric size when deciding how many strands of floss to use in a project. For example, 11 count - 3 strands, 14 count - 2 strands, 18 - count 2 strands, and 22 count - 1 strand. However, with a kit, you need to use what is suggested or you could run out of floss.
