Spring Counted Cross Stitch Kit by Merejka K-268A

Stitch Spring with this Merejka counted cross-stitch kit — a flowering pink blossom tree arches over a country lane lined with rose-pink shrubs, while a cottage, lilac hedges, and a quiet stream with paddling ducks fill out the scene in soft, sunlit color. Worked on Zweigart 16-count white Aida fabric using premium DMC threads in 37 carefully matched shades, the palette captures every soft pink, lilac, and spring green in the design.

Why this kit: two backstitch chart versions let you dial in as much outline detail as you like on the tree, cottage, and water; the 37-shade DMC palette builds up believable depth from blossom to shoreline; the small finished size keeps the project quick to complete without losing any of the scene's charm.

Kit includes: Zweigart canvas, DMC threads, John James needles, and a colour chart.

Counted cross-stitch is worked by following the colour chart and placing each stitch on the gridded Aida fabric with the indicated DMC thread shade. Because both a with-backstitch and a without-backstitch version of the chart are included, stitchers can add crisp outlines to the branches, roofline, and water's edge, or let the color blocks alone carry the picture. Work section by section until the design is complete, then frame as wall art or seasonal decor.

Finished size: 11.5x11.5 cm (4.53x4.53 in) — a compact, collectible piece that's perfect for framing or seasonal display. A joyful project for seasonal stitching and a wonderful handmade gift for anyone who loves the beauty of spring.
