Kitcove is a craft shop for people who've never picked up a needle.

Most embroidery kits assume you already know what you're doing. They hand you a pattern, a hoop and a bag of thread, and leave you to work out the rest from a diagram. That's where most people give up, usually before the first stitch.

We build kits for the opposite person. The fabric arrives with the pattern already printed on it, so there's no tracing and no transfer paper. The hoop, the needles, the thread and the instructions are all in the box. You open it, you sit down, and you start. Nothing else to buy and nothing to figure out first.

Alongside the kits we stock bookbinding and leather tools, because the people who finish their first hoop tend to want a second thing to make. It's one shop for makers who are just getting going.

Kitcove ships across the United States. Shipping is $5.95, and it's free once you spend $75. If something isn't right, send it back within 30 days and we'll sort it out. :)
