This pattern is an abstract flower drawing with a nice neutral color combination very suitable for beginners! There are only 2 simple embroidery stitches in it! Are you not a fan of the blue flowers in the pattern? There is a darker shade of pink in the package, this is not used in the example but can be used instead of the blue color yarn for an even more neutral color palette.
 The package includes a detailed online manual that explains exactly how the stitches work, how to easily trace the pattern onto your canvas and all sorts of other tips and tricks. You also get access to a larger basic embroidery manual where all the basic embroidery stitches are explained and you can find 10 other embroidery patterns.
 The pattern consists of the following basic stitches:
 French knot
 Satin stitch
 These stitches are explained using text, illustrations and videos so that even a beginner can master them in no time.
 What's in the embroidery kit?
 Bamboo embroidery hoop 15cm
 6 strands of high-quality embroidery thread from the AIRO brand
 Needle set with 3 needles in different sizes
 Water-soluble pattern drawing marker
 Off-white cotton embroidery fabric
 Wire cutter
 Detailed online manual via QR code in the box
 The package comes in a kraft letterbox box with pink tissue paper on the inside
 After embroidering this pattern, you will still have a lot of embroidery thread left and the 2 embroidery stitches that appear in this pattern under control. With the water-soluble pattern drawing pen, you can, for example, draw extra patterns on a tote bag or clothing and thus make your own mini-embroideries with the leftover threads! The pen will last up to 2 years and everything you draw with it can be washed out with a little water. So if you have also caught the embroidery virus, you can continue with the items from the kit even after embroidering this flower drawing.
 Why is the pattern not printed on the canvas?
 To save money, it was decided not to pre-print the pattern on the canvas. I want to keep the embroidery kits affordable and adding a pattern drawing pen to the kit turned out to be a more economical choice than the alternative. Copying the pattern onto your canvas is an easy job, I show exactly how to do it with a video and discuss various techniques. You can then also use the pattern drawing pen to copy other patterns or even to draw your own pattern.
 About Daffie's Embroidery Kits
 I design/draw all the patterns myself, embroider the examples and also make the manuals that come with the kits myself. Because I also went through the process from complete beginner to advanced embroiderer, I hope to be able to easily teach others the finer points of embroidery. The embroidery kits are also all packed in the Netherlands at the Nora works foundation. People with a distance to the labor market work there and in this way can still participate in a protected environment at their own pace. With every kit ordered, the Nora Foundation also benefits directly, because they receive a portion of the profit. It is a wonderful initiative and I am therefore very happy with this collaboration!
 Vervaco sells kits with these patterns through its own channels worldwide. These also include manuals in many different languages. Note, these are packaged and distributed through Vervaco's channels and not by the Nora Works foundation. Manuals for the international kits are also made by Vervaco.
