Groves Of Thames Snail Embroidery Kit - Needlepoint Kit

Yes, this kit is specifically designed for beginners with no prior experience. The pre-printed canvas and included materials make it very easy to start.

A 6.5 count canvas means there are 6.5 holes or intersections per inch. This is a relatively coarse count, making it easier for beginners to work with and see the holes.

The half stitch is a basic needlepoint stitch that covers half of a square on the canvas. In this kit, you will likely be working rows of half stitches to fill in the design.

Completion time varies greatly depending on individual speed and available time. However, due to its small size and simple design, many beginners can finish it within a few hours to a couple of days of dedicated work.

Yes, you can gently hand wash the finished piece with mild soap and cool water. Avoid machine washing or harsh detergents.

The approximate finished size is 10.5 x 10.5cm, which is equivalent to 4 x 4 inches.

No, the kit includes the materials to create the embroidered piece itself. A frame or other finishing materials would need to be purchased separately.

Ensure you are using the recommended length of yarn per stitch and that you are not pulling the yarn too tight, which can waste material. If a color is truly depleted, contact the manufacturer for potential replacement yarn.

Slightly moisten the end of the acrylic yarn to make it stiffer, or use a needle threader if you have one.

Focus on maintaining consistent tension with each stitch. Ensure the needle goes through the canvas at the same angle each time for the half stitch.
