Kit includes Mill Hill Beads, Mill Hill Perforated Paper, floss, needles, chart, and instructions. Finished size 3" x 4.75".
While we still have kits in stock with Perforated Paper, newer Mill Hill kits are now being made with Perforated PVC. We were skeptical at first, but here's what our testing has revealed so far:
1. Perforated PVC looks and feels nearly identical to perforated paper, and nothing like plastic canvas. It's sturdy and easy to hold, and is slightly harder to bend.
2. Our needle and thread glide just as smoothly through the new PVC as they do through paper, and finished stitches on both materials look nearly identical.
3. The new PVC is some sturdy stuff. It's much harder to tear than the paper, so you can pull your threads as tight as you want without having to worry about deforming holes or ripping. We also expect the PVC to be more resistant to decay and yellowing.
All in all, while (like many in the community) we were originally hesitant about this change, our first impressions have been very positive.
Reviews From CustomersWho Purchased This Item
from United States on 09/20/2025 - Desert Santa I would have given this a 5 star, however the DMC floss was not marked nor was there any amount of strands listed per color. There were a lot of similar colors and it was hard to tell each color apart. If you had indicated the number of strands for each color, that would have made it much easier.
