Capture the peaceful beauty of winter with this Merejka counted cross-stitch kit — Winter Evening. The design depicts a snow-covered European canal town at dusk, with an arched stone bridge, a glowing lamppost, and warmly lit windows reflected in the still water. Worked on Zweigart 16-count cappuccino Aida fabric using premium DMC threads in 24 rich shades, this evocative winter design suits seasonal display or gifting. Why this kit: 24 DMC shades balance the cool snow-blue tones with the warm glow of lit windows for a striking evening contrast; the canal-and-bridge composition gives the scene a quiet, storybook European charm; the moderate color count keeps the project approachable while still richly detailed. Kit includes: Zweigart canvas, DMC threads, John James needles, and a colour chart, with two versions of the pattern — with and without backstitches — so stitchers can choose their preferred level of detail. Counted cross-stitch is worked by following the colour chart and placing each stitch on the gridded Aida fabric with the indicated DMC thread color. The backstitch chart sharpens the bridge stonework, window frames, and lamppost details for a more polished finish. Work section by section until complete, then frame as seasonal wall art. Finished size: 30x40 cm (11.81x15.75 in), creating a generous artwork that looks stunning when framed. A calming and rewarding project for intermediate and experienced stitchers.
