Height Chart - Our greatest adventure

A wall height chart worked in counted cross stitch: the little animals sail along the centimetre scale, which runs from 70 to 130. The chart includes an alphabet, so you can add a child's name and date of birth as in the photo and turn the piece into a new baby or christening gift.

Besides cross stitch there are a few long stitches and back stitch for the outlines; the chart is printed with large squares, which makes it easy to follow even with little experience. The wooden hanging rods are not part of the kit: once finished, the chart can be mounted on a dowel, hung with rings or simply hemmed. An embroidery hoop or frame is also useful while stitching.
