Level 1
Learning the foundation stitches, Tent, Continental and Basketweave Stitch. Learning the appropriate way to start and end threads. Chooses clearly defined designs with plenty of background and no shading. Likes to work large areas of one stitch that requires no compensation. Comfortable with using floss, pearl cotton, merino wool and/or tapestry wool.
Level 2
Expanding on foundation stitches and learning Alternating Continental, T-Stitch, Brick Stitch and its variations. Learning to read stitch diagrams that also include verbiage. Starting to learn how to compensate a stitch that cannot be completed within a defined area. Working with a mixture of single strand and pliable threads on one project to add depth and dimension. Adding stitches that build off of Tent such as Mosaic, Scotch and Cashmere.
Level 3
Learning more complicated stitches such as Rhodes, Byzantine, and Herringbone. Also adding composite stitches into repertoire such as Criss-Cross Hungarian. Reads stitch diagrams with or without numbers and verbiage. Understands compensation. Adding textured threads including man-made fibers intended for metallic, sparkly, and fluffy effects to projects and can work through shading effectively. Uses a stitch guide for projects and sticks to it. Comfortable plying and or blending threads.
Level 4
Enjoys a good stitch guide but is willing to dismiss parts in order to incorporate personal artistic interpretation. Has a library of "go to" stitches and can work through all variations of Turkey Work, Jessica Stitch, Crescent Stitch and Openwork Background stitches. Comfortable compensating in complex design areas. Ok with random stitches such as long and short stitches. Views a stitch guide as just a guide and is comfortable using stitches other than what is recommended.

I liked it. A little limited even for a beginner like me but it allowed me to practice on actual canvas what I’m learning on YouTube.
Working on learning the basket weave stitch. I haven’t conquered it yet but find the directions and video very helpful.
I’m new to needlepoint and for this kit to help me with the basic continental tent stitch and basket weave stitches. The canvas comes painted with basic shapes and the kit comes with a needle and some samples of different fibers. Instruction booklet was included and was easy to follow. I recommend this kit for beginners to help with refining skills.
I am enjoying my new foray into needlepoint with the starter kit and video purchase. I would recommend to anyone who is interested in learning this craft.
Nice large canvas and detailed instructions! Very helpful for someone new to needlepointing!
