Hot Summers Day
There is something wonderfully carefree about this design. Hot Summers Day captures a sun-drenched portrait of a young woman wearing a wide-brimmed straw hat and stylish sunglasses, bathed in the kind of golden light that feels like a proper summer holiday.
This pattern will appeal to anyone who loves stitching figures and fashion, and the finished piece makes a gorgeous addition to a bright, airy room. It would also make a thoughtful and personal gift for someone who treasures the long, lazy days of summer.

CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so use the DMC column for those brands.
These lengths are a guide. It's worth buying an extra skein or two of your main colours to allow for mistakes and tension differences.
HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Gamma, Luca-S and Sullivans. Pick your brand when you start the project.
