Do you need to purchase wool for your canvas? We have a range of great value Anchor wool packs if you need wool for your starter kit canvas. The wool packs contain 12 skeins of wool (2 of six different colours). Each beginner’s canvas is designed with eight colours, so buy two packs if you want lots of choice, and plenty of spare wool for your next project.

Which size of frame is best for a beginner? For a beginner’s tapestry canvas, a 12″ wide CF129 frame is a good size. If you may progress to stitch larger designs in the future, choose one of the wider frames with code ending in ‘9’ and position your canvas in the centre of the frame when you stitch it.

Choosing a Tapestry Frame
A tapestry frame is not essential, but we do recommend that beginners use a frame it will enable them to concentrate on stitching, and let the frame do the job of holding the canvas.
For Seaside starter kit, we recommend a CF129 tapestry frame. Choose one of the larger frames (CF189, CF219 or CF249), ie one with code ending in '9' if you intend to stitch larger projects in the future. These will allow you to attach a canvas wider than 12

Choosing a Frame
A tapestry frame is not essential, but is useful for beginners as they can concentrate on stitching without having to hold the canvas at the same time. We stock a good range of British made no-sew tapestry clip frames which only take a few minutes to assemble. As the canvas is attached by clips, the frames allow you to switch between projects if necessary.
For Seaside, we recommend a CF129 frame but choose one of the larger frames with code ending in ‘9’ if you think you will stitch larger projects in the future.
