There is something quietly lovely about a rainy day, and this cheerful pattern captures it beautifully. A crowd of figures shelter beneath a collection of boldly coloured umbrellas, creating a warm and lively scene that celebrates the ordinary magic of wet weather.

This design is a wonderful choice for anyone who enjoys stitching everyday moments with character and colour. It works beautifully as a framed piece for the home and makes a thoughtful, personal gift for friends who appreciate the charm of life in all weathers.

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, Gamma, Luca-S and Sullivans. Pick your brand when you start the project.
