			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>You asked for it, we&#8217;ve expanded the shop to include stitching projects!<br />
To start out we picked up <a href="http://www.kpixie.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=313" target="_blank">Sublime Stitching and Olympus Sashiko</a>.</p>
<p>Not only do we have the Sublime Stitching kits and patterns<br />
<img src="http://www.pixieknit.com/blog/images/2007/09/main-sublime-kits.jpg" alt="main-sublime-kits.jpg" />  <img src="http://www.pixieknit.com/blog/images/2007/09/sublime-ptn-tattoo.jpg" alt="sublime-ptn-tattoo.jpg" /></p>
<p>We also have a pack of embroidery floss to create ANY of the patterns.  So if you already have a hoop and needle, <a href="http://www.kpixie.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=313_314" target="_blank">pick up a few patterns</a> and the <a href="http://www.kpixie.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=4549" target="_blank">floss pack</a> to create tons of projects!  You can work the patterns any way you like:  stitching, cross stitch, crewel, more.</p>
<p>The patterns are on 8-1/2&#8243; x 11&#8243; transfer paper, each little pattern (which should be cut from the sheet before use) is larger than you might think, some are 6&#8243; tall.  The transfers can be used up to 8 times.</p>
<p>Next up is Sashiko, a traditional Japanese stitching technique.  Simple yet elegant.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.pixieknit.com/blog/images/2007/09/sashiko-sample.jpg" title="sashiko-sample.jpg"><img src="http://www.pixieknit.com/blog/images/2007/09/sashiko-sample.thumbnail.jpg" alt="sashiko-sample.jpg" /></a>  &lt;&#8211; click for larger photo<br />
Here is a sample of Sashiko embroidery, the pattern is<br />
printed on the cotton fabric, and the ink washes out!</p>
<p><img src="http://www.pixieknit.com/blog/images/2007/09/olympus-sashiko-234.jpg" alt="olympus-sashiko-234.jpg" />     <img src="http://www.pixieknit.com/blog/images/2007/09/olympus-sashiko-234back.jpg" alt="olympus-sashiko-234back.jpg" /><br />
These <a href="http://www.kpixie.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=313_315" target="_blank">kits</a> include everything you need to finish the project: needle, Sashiko thread, zippers, beads, high quality cotton fabric, Sashiko thimble, and more.</p>
<p>The graphics on the instruction sheet are so easy to follow even though the text is Japanese.   <a href="http://www.kpixie.com/catalog/index.php?cPath=313_315" target="_blank">Click here for all 5 kits available</a>!</p>
