Chain, on the rare occasion I've done it, I don't have too many problems with it like those %^&$# daisies :) Though I did do a LOT of crewel back in the day, and the main stitch there, the split stitch???, is essentially a chain, so I learned my tension there. I like the colors you've got going so far - and being a Buckeye myself, the scarlet could be called whatever; Wright State - green & gold. I only root for the Buckeyes to irritate the local MI fans :) Because it would seem I know more Yankees down here in GA than I did in OH...
