MATERIALS

  • 2 skeins of Louet’s Euroflax Originals, 100% Linen. This color is “Natural”.
  • Koigu’s KPM Needlepoint Yarn, 100% Merino Wool. I used 3 skeins: 2 of color #2229 and 1 of #2227. If you only want to use one color for your cross stitching or if you want to use two colors more equally than I did, you’ll only need 2 skeins.
  • A size B crochet hook
  • 2 pieces of Mary Flanagan’s Felted Wool, 100% Wool. This color is “Smokey Joe”.
  • A Bamboo Pillow Form, 14 x 14 inches.
  • Cotton Sewing Thread in a neutral color, such as Gutermann’s #3260
