A Venetian view to work in counted cross stitch on Zweigart 16-count Aida in ice blue, a cool shade that sets off the water and the house fronts. With 33 colours and a generous format, it is a project to take slowly, better suited to stitchers already at ease with counted work and with symbol charts.
The kit brings together all the stitching materials, threads and needle included. You will also want a hoop or frame and a small pair of embroidery scissors; for the finish, choose frame and mount once the stitched area is complete and measured. It makes a picture to hang, and a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves Italy and its waterways.
