I have been asked lately about the coverage for wool so I am adding this as a general rule of thumb,
To cover one square inch (1"x 1") you will need approx.
48" for #10 mesh  - using 3 strands
38" for #12 mesh - using 2 strands
42" for #14 mesh - using 2 strands
25" for #18 mesh - using 1 strand
also; one strand is used for most all crewel and also one strand for cross stitch
This is new/Vintage Paternayan as it is no longer produced under the trademark name "Paternayan"
This is un-used wool that has come from a closed needle craft shop.
