FlossTube #26 - WIP Updates, Thinking of New Gecko Start

Summary AI

Anna from Alchemist Stitcher returns after a busy summer to share progress on nine of her projects, with no new starts or finishes. She begins by thanking viewers for the response to her midyear WIP parade video, noting it has become her most-watched video and has attracted Russian-speaking viewers. She then goes through each project, starting with her focus piece, Witcher Cat by Jay Parks, charted by GeckoRouge, on which she has added nearly 6,000 stitches and discovered that a large portion of the remaining chart is a single colour (likely DMC 939), which she hopes will speed up completion. Other projects include Folk Witch, Witcher, Hydrangea, Pumpkin Spice Cottage, King of Flowers, The Mayor's Nest, Bumblebees Floral Fusion, and Mostly Air, with detailed stitch counts and percentages for each.

• Anna shows nine WIPs with detailed stitch counts and percentages, including Witcher Cat, Folk Witch, and Hydrangea.
• She discovers that over a third of the remaining stitches on Witcher Cat are a single colour (DMC 939), which she hopes will speed up finishing.

• She is waiting for a large Colin Thompson kit from GeckoRouge with over a million stitches and plans to do an unboxing video.
