Hi,
I also experience problems with densities when I'm using white yarn. A
coloured yarn covers wel, even on a dark or light background but when I use
the white yarn, I still see the fabric. Could it be that the white yarn is
finer than coloured yarn ? And can I adjust such a design only by adjusting
the density ? Or should I change the density of the backgroundlayer ?
