Mary Maxim Santa Mouse Throw Kit

Cross stitch sits on afghan stitch in this holiday throw. Dorothy Warrell designed it. The shop price shown is $70.49.

The McPhedrain family owns Mary Maxim. The kit page does not say where the Starlette yarn was spun, or whether the work happens in Paris, Ontario or Port Huron, Michigan.

Yarn and the pattern ship together. You still supply the hook. The throw finishes just over a metre wide. Skill level is intermediate, and the page lists it as backordered.
