Canvas embroidery kit - Kuba Shoowa Arena Mini Picture

The Shoowa, part of the Kuba people in Africa, embroider cloths that today are shown in museums all over the world. This mini picture brings that tradition closer, so you can create it with your own hands and give yourself a calm moment.

This canvas embroidery kit is ideal if you want to practise different stitches. The complete kit includes:

• Canvas with the design (approx. 21 × 15 cm)
• 100% Spanish wool needed to complete the design - Colours: Walnut and Aubergine
• Embroidery needle
• 2 cards with the stitches used in the design
• Printed instructions showing which colour and which stitch goes in each part
• Access to the video tutorial to learn the technique and use it in this project and in the ones to come

The Canvas only option: you get the canvas with the design and access to a video tutorial on the petit point technique — it does not teach the different stitches and does not include wool, needle or cards.

Level: Intermediate
Technique: Needlepoint
Canvas: 9 ct (9 squares per inch)
