Description

Anni is an sophisticated six-colour needlepoint kit inspired by the clean geometry, symmetry, and quiet harmony of Bauhaus surface design. With its elegant composition, Anni brings a sense of rhythm and balance to your stitching practice—blending timeless modernist aesthetics with a fresh, contemporary sensibility.

The colour palette is a carefully considered mix: pale and deep greys provide a grounded base, while soft peach, hot orange, bright gold, and a lemony green introduce vibrancy and warmth. Together, these tones strike a perfect balance between richness and restraint, creating a final piece that feels both luminous and sophisticated.

Crafted in the UK, Anni is supplied with a blank canvas and a detailed printed paper chart. The chart is clear and easy to follow, with full-colour symbols and a key, allowing you to work at your own pace. This chart-based method offers a mindful stitching experience – like painting by numbers with wool – where the design builds slowly, shade by shade.

Stitching Style: Victorian Cross Stitch, the recommended method for this kit, uses 25% more yarn than standard stitches, creating a dense, luxurious finish with a soft, rug-like texture.

Thanks to the stitch’s frame-free flexibility, Anni is perfect for travel and everyday portability. It’s also ideal for anyone looking to create a durable, richly tactile piece—whether a single cushion or, when combined with additional kits, a show-stopping rug. And while Victorian Cross Stitch is recommended, this kit can also be completed using Basketweave Tent Stitch or your preferred method, on or off a frame.
