What’s the theme?
To give a little idea of what you may expect, the patterns have a Christmas theme. And it matches very well with our Joy – Peace and Hope pieces.
And…
The design is made in a double embroidery hoop!
We’ll add video tutorials for double hooping and framing your piece. So you’ll learn a completely new technique!

Questions you may have
Yes!
If you join after the first release date you will also receive all the previous patterns from the stitch along.
With a Secret Stitch Along – also referred to as a SAL – you buy a kit but you don’t know exactly what you will stitch until the moment you’ll get the pattern. The pattern is released in different parts, and only with the last pattern piece you will get the total picture.
Participants of the Studio Koekoek’s Secret Stitch Along 2023 will be the first to finish a fun counted cross stitch kit that will only be released in our collection of 2024.
If you’re a complete beginner we recommend to choose the kit with the antique white Aida fabric. It’s the easiest to stitch on this fabric.
We include illustrated step by step instructions in all kits, so if you’re up for a little challenge you can also pick one of the other options. We personally love the dark blue version. The blue fabrics make the floss colors pop.
And of course if you have any questions while stitching, we’re always happy to help!
Contents of the Secret Stitch Along cross stitch kit:
- DMC embroidery floss
- Antique White Aida 16 count, Night Blue Aida 16 count or Oliv coloured evenweave linen 32 count (depending on your choice)
