A countryside scene with a red-haired girl looking out over the lake, a swing hanging from a branch and a village tucked among the woods: soft colours with plenty of greens and blues, worked entirely in counted cross stitch from the symbolic chart.
16 count Aida has a fine weave: it is usually stitched with one strand of stranded cotton, and good light plus a hoop or frame will help keep the stitches even. The instructions come in English, German and French, while the symbol chart and the threads already sorted on the organiser make the work easy to follow. Once finished, the piece will need a frame, which is not included.
