Product Description

Part of the London Collection in honour of the Jubilee and Olympics

Our kits are all designed by Jacqui Pearce in house and created in our studio by our small team. Many hands touch your kit before it reaches you - as we lovingly hand twist every hank and pick and pack every detail. These are not kits created in a big factory, which enables us to offer the width of designs that we do.

Canvas

Quality Zweigart canvas. We think that this is the best quality canvas you can buy.

The HPI are the number of holes per inch on a straight line within the canvas - 10hpi is great for beginners, and 14 hpi is great for detail work. 7 hpi is superquick and easy, and my favourite! 5 hpi is super chunky

Wool

We give you plenty of 100% British Virgin Wool in either 4 ply tapestry wool / or 2 ply crewel wool. Enough to stitch with the recommended stitch technique. All wool is supplied in neat twisted hanks, which we hand twist ourselves. The yarns are bought in raw from the dyers - and sometimes we have to substitute colours due to supply which is out of our control.

Needles & Threader
Two quality John James tapestry needles - one to use and one to keep! You could always have 2 yarns on the go. Plus a thick yarn threader for ease of use.

Instructions & Chart
Full instructions are provided including detailed stitch charts and stitching diagrams.

**PLEASE NOTE - The kit is a COUNTED CROSS STITCH chart and is not printed on the canvas. The kit contains all you need to complete the cross stitch needlepoint piece and NOT the fabrics / frames or trims to finish your piece. But we do offer all of these items for sale on our site...
