The Book Cats bookmark design features a curious black cat perched among stacked books, paging through an open storybook and settling in beside a pile of paperbacks, with small paw prints scattered across a soft teal ground. The simple, high-contrast palette keeps the cat and book shapes crisp and easy to read even in the narrow bookmark format.
Why this kit: the black cat and book motifs are charted with bold, clean outlines that stitch up crisply at bookmark scale; the design works equally well as a practical page-marker or a small framed piece for a reading nook; the compact size makes it a quick, rewarding project for a cat-and-book lover.
Kit includes: a pre-printed/pre-stamped 14 count Aida bookmark base, DMC embroidery floss in the listed colors, a needle, and illustrated stitching instructions.
Counted cross stitch is worked by following the printed color chart and symbol key, placing each stitch in its marked position on the Aida fabric with the matching DMC floss color, and building the cat and book design section by section until the bookmark is complete.
Rated suitable for beginners, this kit is a good fit for cat owners and book lovers, and makes a fitting handmade gift for anyone who reads with a cat nearby.
