Finished area is approximately 19 1/2" x 15 3/4" on 100% cotton canvas 26" x 23". This kit includes all 100% wool yarn for the complete picture including background. The women's faces and hands are in petit point.
The canvas has a 1/4" hole at the top center outside of the work area. We purchased this item at a needlecraft tradeshow and it was mounted on their display board.
This kit includes the trammed canvas (100% cotton canvas with hand-stitched trammed portions in 100% wool) and matching 100% wool needlepoint tapestry yarn to stitch over the trammed canvas using half-cross stitch. This kit was produced in very limit quantities and does not have custom printed instructions, pictures, charts, needle, or packaging typically found in mass-produced kits.
A tramme needlepoint is a pre-stitched design on double-mesh Penelope canvas instead of a painted or printed design. The pre-stitching is typically horizontal lines. The needleworker uses the matching color yarn included in the kit to stitch over the pre-stitching. Sometimes fine details such as faces, skin, and flowers are pre-finished in petit point or gros stitch. Kits generally only include sufficient yarn to stitch over the pre-stitch using the half-cross stitch technique to save yarn. Some trammes have the entire design area pre-stitched, and others only have the main features pre-stitched and the needleworker provides their own yarn (and colors of choice) to stitch the background and unstitched areas.
