I purchased this kit at the Dimples Designs booth at CATS in Riverside, and started it on the last day of the show while waiting for a group that was getting together for dinner at the Spaghetti Factory that night. This became one of my small, portable projects that I would bring along to places like waiting rooms and my daughter's Judo class. This design used black rayon for most of the black areas, and I used two strands; I later found out that one strand would have been sufficient, especially since two strands of rayon made a very tight fit.

The chart contained a few mistakes, mainly with the border (upper left and right corners).
