This sweet quartet of Arctic animals is the ideal project to snuggle up and stitch this season

candi designs continue to grow in popularity and it’s not hard to see why – the pretty graphic patterns are easy to stitch and are a welcome addition to home dècor. This delightful contemporary collection of animals is no exception!

The stylish set is designed by Alyssa Westhoek from Stitchonomy, who’s known for her modern take on traditional embroidery. Using whole stitches only and in a colour scheme perfect for this frosty time of year, Alyssa has cleverly shaped traditional geometric patterns to make a fox, owl, deer and narwhal – creatures who all make their home in the snowy landscapes of the Arctic.
