Night Beauty Lantern and Moth Counted Cross-Stitch Kit by Abris Art AHM-056

Stitch Night Beauty, a counted cross-stitch kit by Abris Art — an ornate golden lantern glows against a starry blue background while a violet moth flutters close to its light. Worked on 100% cotton Aida in 19 colours of embroidery floss, it's a small design with a big dose of magic.

A little stitcher's folklore: a moth drawn to your lamp has long been read as a messenger — country lore says it means a letter or visitor is on the way. And a lantern in the window was the old way of guiding loved ones safely home. Stitchers say this little lantern keeps that light burning, whoever you're waiting for.

Why this kit: if you're drawn to dreamy, fairytale designs, this one is a treat to stitch — rich golds, deep blues and a glowing focal point. It's compact enough to finish in a few evenings, the hoop is included and doubles as a frame, and it's friendly for beginners. A lovely gift for a night owl or a friend far from home.

Kit includes: 100% cotton Aida canvas, a cross stitch needle, 19 colours of embroidery floss on an organizer, a printed symbol chart, an embroidery hoop, and instructions in 8 languages.

Counted cross stitch is worked by following the symbol chart and placing each cross on the Aida grid with the matching floss colour. Stitch the lantern first, then the moth and the starry background.

Finished size: 15×15 cm (5.91×5.91 in). Enchanting bedroom or reading-nook decor and a thoughtful handmade gift.
