The cross-point™ Collection
KARAKUM KILIM NEEDLEPOINT KIT
our vibrant interpretation of a universal symbol from cross-point.com™
Our Karakum Kilim needlepoint pattern features a striking tribal geometric that is deeply rooted in global textiles. The elongated hexagon - a universal design archetype - appears in tribal art traditions across the globe from Asia, across North Africa, to the sacred symbols of the American Southwest and cultures in between, each assigning its own meaning.
Designed for fast stitching, our proprietary cross-point™ technique perfectly bridges the gap between counted cross stitch and classic needlepoint. This unique method allows you to complete this stunning, durable upholstery-weight textile in a fraction of the time required for traditional canvas needlepoint. Each kit in our collection is curated with the highest-quality materials, including a beautiful natural jute canvas, clear large-scale color charts, specific instructions, and a generous supply of luxurious French tapestry wool that delivers a rich, handmade texture. Like all designs inspired by traditional kilims, this is an exceptionally satisfying project to stitch.
This versatile Kilim needlepoint design is available in five pillow sizes as well as a striking accent rug suitable for the floor or as a wall hanging. The largest square pillow is ideal as a floor pillow, and the long lumbar cushion is a perfect size for beds and large sofas. This versatile pattern can showcase distinct regional aesthetics by color choice - whether you want to use turquoise and desert grays of the Southwest, the deep indigo and saffron yellows of traditional Mediterranean colors, or in the historic, earthy palette of rusty reds and deep blacks shown at the top. We also offer custom colors and custom sizing. (please see Custom Services)
