The Simply Make Embroidery by Numbers Christmas Jumper Kit takes the guesswork out of embroidery — the fabric is pre-printed with a colour-coded design showing exactly where each thread colour goes, so you follow the numbers and build up the finished piece stitch by stitch. No pattern counting, no transfers, no experience required. If you can thread a needle and make a basic stitch, you can complete this kit.
The Christmas jumper design is exactly the kind of festive make that is satisfying to complete in an evening or two — compact, cheerful, and with enough detail to feel like a proper embroidery project rather than a five-minute craft. The finished piece can be framed, mounted in a hoop, or used as a seasonal decoration.
As a stocking filler or small Christmas gift for anyone who enjoys craft or wants to try embroidery for the first time, it is well priced and comes with everything needed to complete the project.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does embroidery by numbers mean?
The fabric comes pre-printed with the design and colour-coded areas — each section is numbered or coloured to show which thread to use and where. You simply stitch over the printed guide. It is the embroidery equivalent of painting by numbers, and makes the process genuinely accessible for complete beginners.
What is included in the kit?
The kit includes the pre-printed fabric, embroidery threads in the colours needed to complete the design, a needle, and instructions. You will need a small pair of scissors, which are not included.
Do I need a hoop?
A hoop is not included but is recommended for a neater result — it holds the fabric taut while you stitch, which makes it easier to work and produces more even stitches. A small 15cm or 20cm hoop works well for a kit this size.
How long does it take to complete?
Most people complete a kit like this in one to three evenings depending on pace and experience. It is a satisfying project to pick up and put down.
Is this suitable as a gift?
Yes — it makes a thoughtful and well-priced gift or stocking filler for anyone who enjoys craft, wants to try embroidery, or simply likes making things. The Christmas theme makes it particularly well timed for the season.
