Steotch 8 is the cross stitching mystery stitch-a-long (SAL) that usually happens every year and it's back, BABY!!!
There are competitions between teams, individuals, pairs, countries, continents, languages, etc..... Thousands of stitchers from around the world join in every time to compete for the World Championship of Cross Stitching!!
Steotch.com is the website with all the info and where you can purchase the patterns from previous years. A portion of the mystery pattern is released on a weekly basis for 6-8 weeks or however long Em & Matt decide it's going to be. It's always fun to see the guesses from everyone until it's revealed what it is!
The "suggested" materials list was released yesterday with two different thread palettes:
Palette 1
