Few sights in the night sky are quite as breathtaking as Saturn and its magnificent rings, and this cross stitch pattern captures that wonder in a design you can hold in your hands. Rich amber and burnt-orange tones give the planet a warm, glowing presence, while the sweeping ring system adds a graceful sense of movement.

Whether you are a lifelong stargazer, a science enthusiast, or simply someone who appreciates a striking piece of wall art, this is a wonderfully satisfying stitch that would look equally at home in a study, a child's bedroom, or wrapped up as a thoughtful gift.

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.
