Stitch on Pearl Flecked White, a 32 count Murano evenweave by Zweigart: a white evenweave flecked with a pearly metallic thread for a soft shimmer. The metallic thread catches the light, so even simple motifs sparkle.

A little stitcher's folklore: metallic threads were once real gold and silver wrapped around silk and kept for church and court embroidery; a touch of shimmer in the cloth nods to that tradition.

Why this fabric: Murano is Zweigart's 32 count version of Lugana, the same smooth cotton and viscose blend at the scale of Belfast linen. Worked over two it gives 16 stitches per inch, matching 16 count Aida, without the slubs of a true linen. This shade suits Christmas, wedding and winter designs.

In the pack: one precut piece of Zweigart Murano, cotton woven with a metallic thread, 32 count (12.6 threads per cm), in Pearl Flecked White. Not included: chart, floss, needle and hoop, sold separately.

Getting started: overcast the edges, fold to find the centre and stitch over two threads with a size 26 or 28 tapestry needle, using two strands of floss. Press with a cool iron through a cloth to protect the shimmer.

Size: 48 x 68 cm (19 x 27 in). Worked over two with a 2 in margin all round, it fits a design of about 235 x 360 stitches. One piece is plenty for a framed sampler, a pillow front or several small ornaments.
