Countdown To Halloween

A stitched calendar for counting down the days to 31 October: each number comes with its own small Halloween motif, from pumpkins to the black cat, ending with the lettering in the corner. It is worked in cross stitch on 16 count Aida, with back stitch outlines for the details; the finer weave asks for a little care, so it suits stitchers who have already worked a counted design or two.

The threads arrive sorted on the organiser, so you can start straight away. Hoop and frame are not included: the design is sized to fit the largest Nurge hoop, a neat way to display the finished piece without framing it.
