I don't have either one, and I'm thinking a round hoop would be best? The design I'll be using is 2.3 x 2.1 inches and about 6700 stitches. It's not a solid dense design, it has a lot of open area and stitches great on a regular cap with the WACF. I plan to use a solvy on top to prevent the stitches from sinking between the ribs. What backing would be best? Medium cut-away? Mesh, one layer or two? Should the design be on the cuff or just above? Any advice you Guru's can offer will be a big help!
