Mini Stitch Guide: Reindeer Round

Mini Stitch Guide: Reindeer Round

 One of the beauties of needlepoint is there are endless possibilities for how to approach the same canvas. Pictured below are two different samples of our Reindeer Round canvas. The one on the left is stitched using the fibers provided in our Reindeer kit, while the other was stitched by my dear friend Kelsey (@kels.stitches.needlepoint) who got creative with different fibers, decorative stitches, and color swapping. Details for each are below - happy stitching!Reindeer Ornaments

Sample #1 (Pictured Left)

We offer these fibers in our Reindeer kit, which includes all of the fiber you need to stitch your canvas plus some extra to leave room for mistakes. If you would rather buy full skeins so you have extra thread for your stash, I recommend buying 1 skein of each of the following colors.

002 White
047 Caviar
079 Cameo
093 Red Hot
107 Dill Pickle
122 Clay
