Few sites in the world carry quite the sense of wonder that Stonehenge does, and this pattern captures that timeless silhouette beautifully. The standing stones are rendered in warm, earthy tones that bring the prehistoric monument to life on fabric.

Whether you are drawn to ancient history, English landmarks, or simply love a design with real atmosphere, this is a thoroughly rewarding stitch. It makes a striking framed piece for the home and a thoughtful, personal gift for anyone with a love of the ancient world.

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.
