Cancer
Cancer
Highly sensitive, home-loving and intuitive, Cancer is the sign of discernment and taste. They have exacting standards when it comes to style, people, food, houses and etiquette, which can often be misinterpreted as arrogance. Even if their budgets are small, Cancer will still present an air of style and faded grandeur to the World.
Cancerians are also the big softies of the zodiac. Those that don't know them could be put off by their air of nonchalance. Don't be fooled - they are taking everything in. You are being watched, assessed and evaluated according to these high standards, before being accepted into their lives - it's their shell of protection. Once accepted they love to nurture you, feed you, listen to your problems and laugh with you. They make the best friends.
The large kit is worked with one strand of Appleton Brothers tapestry wool in counted cross stitch on Zweigart 7 h.p.i. canvas. The small kit is worked with 2 strands of Appleton Brothers crewel wool in counted cross stitch on Zweigart 10 h.p.i. canvas. The design is worked from the easy-to-follow colour chart provided.
Working with tapestry wool on the larger 7 h.p.i. canvas (large size) gives a beautiful chunky, hand-made finish. The crewel wool worked on the 10 h.p.i. (small size) gives an elegant, smoother finish
