Bothy Threads Scandi Hare Kit XMAS61 Counted Cross Stitch Kit

Stitch Scandi Hare, a counted cross stitch kit by Bothy Threads — a blue-grey hare sits among green leaves, sprigs and gold sparkle. A little stitcher's folklore: in Scandinavia and the Scottish Highlands, mountain hares turn white each winter to blend into the snow. Why this kit: part of Bothy Threads' Scandi Christmas card series, it pairs a simple silhouette with green foliage, gold metallic thread and beads for a modern Nordic look. Kit includes: 16-count winter blue Zweigart Aida, pre-sorted stranded cottons, metallic gold thread, beads, a cream card mount and envelope, a needle and a clear stitch diagram and instructions. Stitches used: full cross stitches and back stitch. The card mount frames the finished stitching, so no extra frame is needed. Stitch the hare and foliage in cross stitch from the centre, then add the back stitch and gold highlights, sew on the beads, and mount the finished piece in the card. Finished size: 10×10 cm (3.9×3.9 in). A calm, stylish card for a hare lover.
