The stitch board is cut in the shape of a smiling lion, with a big orange mane, a sunny yellow face and body, pink cheeks and a blue top, plus a curling tail with an orange tuft at the end. Neat holes run around the mane and across the top, giving the yarn a clear path to follow from one stitch to the next. The board is 18.7cm long, 11.7cm wide and 0.5cm thick, a comfortable size to hold in one hand while the other guides the needle.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe think it suits a quiet afternoon at the kitchen table, a rainy day indoors or a calm craft session in a playroom or bedroom. Taking the needle in and out of the holes builds the steady rhythm of hand-stitching, and the rows of holes on the lion's top leave room for crosses, lines or a pattern of your own. Once the last stitch is done, the finished lion makes a bright little picture to lean on a shelf or pin to a noticeboard, a proud reminder of the first thing sewn.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe stitch board is made from poplar plywood, the yarn is 100% polyester and the needle is polypropylene plastic. As the stitches pass through holes rather than fabric, the yarn can be pulled back through and the lion stitched again in a fresh design whenever you like. To care for the board, wipe it with a soft dry or slightly damp cloth and keep it away from soaking water, as you would with any wood. Wrapped with a ribbon, it makes a thoughtful small gift for anyone ready to try their very first stitches.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch5\u003eSpecification\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003ctable class=\"spec_table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRex London\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eStitch board: plywood (poplar); yarn: 100% polyester; needle: plastic (PP)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e18.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e11.7cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.026KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarnings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarning!
