Some kits are sorted, some aren't. I have recently done 2 Vervaco kits and 1 Heritage and these were all sorted onto punched cards. Vervaco didn't give the dmc number, Heritage did.

This one is lumped into 3 bundles (each with a colored piece of yarn), the cardboard card list that comes in the kit gives a break down of all the different threads and how many lengths there are and it is sorted by yarn bundle.

How lovely. Super colours! Have fun with it (esp as it's your light relief from your HAED

).

Oh, I'm not doing any HAED, think ya got me confused with someone hehehe if you're refering to jester, that was by a website called Mistydreams.com

The picture altered the color a little, the fabric is actually dark blue, not black

Jilly has had too much chocolate hehehe My last message said its on dark blue not black, but the picture some reason made it look black.

The Jester! Of course. Silly me. (Not my business of course, but sorry to hear you are no longer friendly with the person you were stitching that for. Bummer.)

Anyhow, like the Dragonflies.
