Snowman in a Fair-Isle Hat — Full Drill Diamond Painting Kit (45×60cm)

Snowman in a Fair-Isle Hat | 45x60cm Full Drill, Round Drill

The hat is a knitting pattern. You are going to have to follow it.

A cheerful snowman in a red-and-teal fair-isle hat, a white snowflake stitched across his scarf, red mittens at the ready.

Twenty-three colors. What makes this one different from the other three snowmen is the knitwear. Fair-isle is a repeating geometric pattern — bands of red and teal and cream stacked in strict order — and diamond painting renders it drill by drill, which means you are effectively knitting it. Miss a row and the eye catches it immediately, in a way it never would on a drift of snow.

The snow and the sky behind him are the long easy runs. The hat and the scarf are where you sit up straight and pay attention.

About fifty hours.

What you are actually buying. Not a snowman. The evenings — hands busy, tray full, light on over the table, phone in the other room because you cannot pick it up with wax on your fingers.

The canvas is the receipt.

About the drills. Customers have never asked for more drills, but if you need them, we will provide them. Kits come overpacked because the alternative is you, at eleven at night, short of a color, with nothing to do about it. Every bag sealed, numbered, DMC code printed on the front — which matters on a pattern where a single misplaced red is a dropped stitch you will see forever.

WHAT'S IN THE BOX

• Pre-printed adhesive canvas, 45x60cm, with a readable symbol chart
• Round drills, full drill. Every bag sealed, numbered, and printed with its DMC code
• More drills than the canvas calls for
• Drill pen, wax pad, tweezers, grooved tray
• Instructions

HOW IT GETS TO YOU

Every canvas is unfolded, rolled, and re-bagged by hand before it leaves here. Then it ships in a box, not an envelope. That is slower and it costs more. We do it because a canvas that spends a week folded in a mailer is a canvas you fight for every hour you work on it.

Tracked shipping from the studio in Western North Carolina.

IF ANYTHING GOES WRONG

Customers have never asked for more drills, but if you need them, we will provide them. Run short, lose a color, drop a bag in the sink — I send more, no charge, no argument.
