$ 4.50 excl. VAT

Suited to stitchers who enjoy playful motifs and a mix of simple blocks with occasional color changes.

Description

This design shows a cheerful worm in a red jersey and cap, posed beside a black-and-white soccer ball. The 74 by 78 stitch size stays small enough for quick progress while still allowing clear facial features and clothing details. With 17 colors and about half coverage, you get a mix of solid areas in the outfit and ball, plus some shading along the body for gentle depth.

Confetti is present but limited, so you will see some single-color patches broken by short runs of neighboring shades rather than constant scattered stitches. Edge density is moderate, which means you will outline curves and details often enough to keep your focus engaged without feeling fussy. There are no isolated stitches, so you avoid constant re-threading for single dots of color.

The pattern suits stitchers comfortable with basic counting who like a light challenge in shading and back-and-forth around curves. It may not suit anyone who only enjoys large, uninterrupted color blocks or who dislikes switching between several similar tones. The playful sports theme works well for gifts, small decor pieces, or a quick break between larger projects.

Soccer Worm In Red Kit is designed to stitch well, not just to look good: the patternโ€™s structure supports a focused, steady rhythm and clear progress milestones. Difficulty-wise it sits in the range of Medium (Balanced), which mainly reflects how much thread management and precision youโ€™ll want to bring to the table. Itโ€™s compact enough to feel finishable quickly while still giving a polished result.

The palette stays calm and controlled, which makes the stitching rhythm straightforward and relaxing. There is noticeable confetti in places, so expect frequent needle movement and more starts/endsโ€”great if you enjoy precision, less ideal if you prefer big color blocks. High edge contrast means crisp outlines and frequent color transitions, which gives the finished piece a sharp, high-definition look.

The overall feel leans calm, focus, craft, which helps the design stay visually coherent while you work through it. Many stitchers also read Soccer Worm In Red Kit through themes like care, handmade, which can make the finished piece feel personal rather than purely decorative. A strong focal point plus consistent micro-structure keeps the stitching experience rewarding over time.

Stitched is the total number of stitches used (the overall workload).

Coverage is the percentage of the design area that contains stitched pixels (how โ€œfilledโ€ it is).

Colors is the number of floss colors used (with an โ€œeffectiveโ€ estimate that reflects how strongly colors actually appear).

Difficulty is a 1โ€“10 score: 1 = very easy, 10 = extremely challenging.

Confetti_0 counts stitches that have no same-color neighbor directly around them; Confetti_1, Confetti_2, and Confetti_3 apply the same idea with a larger surrounding distance (+1, +2, +3 stitches).

Edge density indicates how โ€œedgyโ€ the design is (more edges = more frequent color changes).

Isolated is the share of stitches that appear as isolated single pixels (often the most interruption-prone stitches).
