Whether you enjoy counted cross stitch, stamped or embellished cross stitch, long stitch, blackwork, tapestry/needlepoint or embroidery, you'll know that this ancient craft gives you enormous satisfaction.
As well as being a relaxing occupation, stitching is a way of meeting likeminded people through local needlework groups and embroiderers' guilds.
And once you finish a project you have a work of art of real value to show for it!
Needlecraft kits come in a bewildering array of shapes, sizes and qualities:
Counted cross stitch kits are the most popular - you use a chart or graph to count where each stitch is made in the evenweave or blockweave fabric.
Stamped or embellished cross stitch kits come with outline or colour printed fabric showing where to make your stitches.
Tapestry kits have colour printed canvas to act as a guide for the stitches.
