Moss Kit FAQs

If you're a seasoned stitcher, you'll still enjoy this kit as it includes lots of new techniques that you might not have seen before.
What is the difference between a Moss Kit and a Latch Hook kit?
Our new moss kit are quite different from our classic latch-hooking kits, but they're equally enjoyable.
Moss Kits:
- Focused on craft and creativity, meaning you can customise your coaster and make it unique to you.
- Uses multiple weaving techniques rather than one latch-hooking technique.
- Faster to create as it can be completed in 1-2 session easily.
- Teaches you to stitch or glue the backing, rather than having it pre-stitched.
Latch-Hooking Kits:
- Focused on mindfulness and relaxation, so its more suitable for watching TV in the background.
- Uses one repeated technique rather than multiple weaving techniques.
- Longer time to stitch as the project is much larger.
- The backing is pre-sewn and the yarn is pre-cut for you making it easier to get started.
Both kits are equally easy and suitable for beginners. However it depends on the activity you'd like to do. If you'd like to get crafty and be more openly creative then I recommend our moss kits. If you'd rather focus on mindfulness and relaxation, try our latch-hooking kits instead.
Why are they more expensive than latch-hook kits?
