Never cross stitched or done embroidery before? This is your opportunity to start. If you need a guide to help you get an idea of how needle work works, you’ll want to check out these best cross stitch books. Oh and…did you know that Book Riot has a book full of rad bookish cross stitch patterns coming this may? You can learn a little about it now and order Lit Stitch. Can’t get enough of Anne with an “e?” You’ll want this Anne of Green Gables cross stitch pattern. $7.32. Last, but not least, the only thing that’s wrong about this cats and books cross-stitch is how none of the cats are chewing the books (that can’t just be my house!). $6.30.
