Designed For Satisfying Stitching

Sometimes you want a more detailed cross stitch project, but you don't want to commit to a design that will take months (or years) to finish. These kits are designed to give you the satisfaction of working on a more detailed cross stitch project while still keeping the finished piece achievable.

With everything prepared and ready to go, you can spend your time stitching rather than gathering supplies, sorting threads or preparing fabric. Whether you're stitching at home, taking a project on holiday, or enjoying a few quiet evenings with your needle and thread, these kits make it easy to get started and stitch until you’ve finished.

Why Stitchers Love Stitch Explorer Kits

Many stitchers have at least one larger work in progress waiting to be stitched. While those projects are rewarding, sometimes it's nice to work on something smaller and enjoy the satisfaction of finishing a piece in weeks rather than months.

The 14-count Zweigart Aida allows for more detail than a beginner project, creating finished pieces that feel special while still being approachable and enjoyable to stitch.

About the Designs

The Stitch Explorer collection currently includes a growing range of detailed designs, including plant-inspired gnomes, with new designs regularly added. Each design is personally stitched and tested before release to ensure the finished result matches the pattern.

Skill Level

These kits are best suited to stitchers with some cross stitch experience. Each design includes its own difficulty rating so you can choose the project that best suits your skill level.

If you're completely new to cross stitch, you may prefer to start with one of our Ultimate Beginner Cross Stitch Kits before moving on to the Stitch Explorer range.

Finished Size

Pattern sizes vary by design

All designs are no larger than 60 x 60 stitches

Designed to create a finished piece suitable for framing, displaying or gifting
