One - Puttoppi Bag, Yarn and Embroidery Kit

The Puttoppi bags are perfect for those of you who have not tried embroidery on knit before. Knit. Embroider. Use or give away! They come in 5 different packages and we have called them something as original as One, Two, Three, Four and Five. This is motif One. In the yarn package you get what you need: Yarn, embroidery thread, pattern for both the bag and the embroidery, as well as a piece of water-soluble non-woven fabric. Add a little extra bling by including a beautiful gold thread that creates a great glitter effect! You can find it here.

The embroidery measures 9.5 x 8.5 cm.

Is this your first time embroidering on knitwear? Check out the video clips of the process on our Instagram account:@bytheknittingstories There is also a step by step picture guide on our website. Take your time to look through here before you start, it will make it easier to get started.

About the embroidery: The motif is embroidered with only one type of stitch, the backstitch. Follow the drawings in the pattern. We first embroider the outline around the figures, then we fill in with colors inside (fill stitches). The fill stitches should be as dense as possible to avoid the background color shining through. They can be advantageously overlapped. It is nice to vary the length of these stitches. NB! The expression will be most beautiful if you let the stitches follow the curves of the figures. This is to bring the figure to life. Use lots of stitches, both small and large.

Brodericity contains:

• 7 colors Eco Vita wool embroidery thread

• Yarn for the bag

• 1 piece of water-soluble non-woven fabric (15 x 15 cm)

• Digital embroidery pattern

We hope you have lots of embroidery fun and remember that you can use this pattern to knit more bags from your leftover yarn!

Equipment list of what you need in addition to embroidery skills:

• Pointed needle
• Gray pencil
• Embroidery hoop with a diameter of at least 15 cm (you can find it here!)

Embroidery thread: We have chosen to use Eco Vita (DMC) wool thread for this collection. Eco Vita embroidery thread is dyed with natural ingredients such as walnut, rhubarb, indigo and juniper. The result is a beautiful and earthy color palette. The thread glides easily when you embroider, and it fills nicely.

NB! Remember that you must always be aware that not all wool qualities are friends. We test the yarn together with various other yarn types continuously and will update our list as we go. If you don't find your combination here, it is a good idea to test embroider a little on a sample patch and wash it so that you are sure that the combination works well in the wash.
