These kits, along with the Doorstop and Hoop Kits, are good pieces for the beginner as well as the more accomplished stitcher. For an afternoon's worth of work you can have a dandy new accessory for your dollhouse or collection.
The Basket Kits include a beautifully handcrafted wooden basket, 1 1/8" long, full-color chart, imported silk gauze, 2 needles, DMC floss, complete stitching and assembly instructions and a color photo of the finished basket.
NOTE: For your convenience, stitch counts are given for these patterns in case you don't wish to stitch on the count of gauze provided in a kit. My suggestion is to purchase the chart for a pattern and a piece of your preferred count silk gauze from the
You can use either the chart colors or your own.
To determine the finished size, divide the width and height stitches by the count of Silk Gauze you wish to use. For example, if the stitch count is shown as 106 wide by 77 high, on 40 count the finished size would be 2.6" by 2" (106 divided by 40 and 77 divided by 40). If you wanted to use 48 count Silk Gauze then divide by 48 and so on...
