{"product_id":"tulip-flower-cross-stitch-kit-with-bamboo-hoop","title":"Tulip Flower Cross-Stitch Kit with Bamboo Hoop","description":"\u003ch5\u003eDescription\u003c\/h5\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis tulip cross-stitch kit gives you a bright little flower to stitch by hand, worked in bold blocks of red and pink for the petals and fresh greens for the leaves and stem. Inside the mint green box you will find white cross-stitch fabric in a polyester and cotton blend, polyester threads in red, pink and green, a round bamboo embroidery hoop with a metal tightening screw, and an iron needle. The lid carries the tulip design, so you can see the finished flower before you make the first stitch. It is a mini kit, compact and light at just 34 grams, and its simple, chunky pattern of squares builds stitch by stitch into a cheerful spring bloom.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCross-stitch is a calm, absorbing pastime, and this tulip makes a pleasant project for a quiet afternoon at the kitchen table or a few relaxed evenings on the sofa. Once the last stitch is in place, the finished flower stays framed in its bamboo hoop, ready to brighten a bookshelf, a desk or a bedroom windowsill. The red, pink and green sit happily in a cottage-style room or a sunny kitchen, and the small size means it never crowds a shelf. Because the kit is so light, it slips easily into a bag for stitching on a train or in the garden.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe hoop is made from bamboo, with a stainless iron and copper screw fitting that you tighten to hold the fabric taut while you work and loosen when you want to move it. The fabric is a polyester and cotton blend with an even grid of holes to guide each cross, and the threads are polyester. To keep the hoop looking its best, dust it with a soft dry cloth, and keep the finished stitching away from damp. Boxed and ready to give, it makes a thoughtful gift, or a cheerful treat to keep for yourself.\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\u003eCross-stitch fabric: polyester \u0026amp; cotton; threads: polyester; hoop: bamboo, stainless iron \u0026amp; copper; needle: iron\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e15.5cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.1cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWeight\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0.034KG\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWarnings\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eContains sharp points and lengths of cord.
