Christmas & FestiveBeginner9 colours17 hours of stitching

This Decorated Christmas Tree brings a classic festive favourite to your hoop or frame. A deep green fir sits beneath a little golden star, with tiny baubles in red, white and gold scattered through its branches and a small brown trunk to finish.

It is a charming choice for anyone who loves Christmas stitching, whether you are building a seasonal collection or looking for a handmade gift. Framed, it makes a cosy wall decoration that you can bring out each December, and stitching it is a lovely way to settle into the festive season.

CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so the codes above cover them too.

These lengths include the thread lost to tails and travelling, so they are what to buy rather than what ends up on the fabric. A spare skein of your main colours is still worth having, because dye lots vary between batches and matching one part way through is the hard part.

HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Dimensions, Gamma, Luca-S, PNK Kirov, Sullivans and Unitas. Pick your brand when you start the project.
