Koi Pond Embroidery Kit – Japanese Fish & Lotus Leaves, Craft Set for Beginners
🧵 Four fish, and the water left bare
The white of the cotton does the work of the pond here, so there is far less filling than a design this size suggests. What you stitch is the fish and the pads; what you leave alone is most of the surface, and the guide says exactly where that line falls.
✦ What you will stitch
Four koi circling on white cotton: two large ones in vermilion and white, a smaller orange one, and a black and white fish beneath them. Lily pads in two greens close the top and the bottom of the hoop, their stems drawn as single lines, and the pads shade from sage to deep forest so they sit at different depths.
✨ What's inside the kit
- Stamped cotton fabric carrying the koi pond design
- Plastic embroidery hoop, 8 in (20 cm)
- Set of colorful cotton threads
- Two embroidery needles
- Printed instruction guide in English, with a stitch guide
❤️ Who it's for
Anyone drawn to Japanese motifs, and a beginner ready for something with shape in it. The fish are filled in bands that follow the body, which is the one technique to learn here, and the pads repeat it at a larger scale. It suits a study, a hallway or a bathroom, and it gives well to someone who keeps a pond or simply likes them. Bamboo and beech hoops are available at extra cost, and the wooden stand comes as its own option.
✔ Good to know
- A kit to stitch, not a finished hoop. The photographs show completed work.
- The orange reads redder on some screens than on others.
- ⚠️ Not suitable for children under 3. Children aged 3 to 10 should stitch with adult guidance.
