The kit comes complete with the necessary embroidery fabric, threads, pattern, needle and instructions.
The wool/acrylic embroidery yarns used in RIOLIS kits are produced by the Italian company Safil. These yarns are made from 70% acrylic and only 30% wool. The wool/acrylic embroidery yarns are more resistible to abrasion, the color stays perfect and are less allergenic. Wool/acrylic embroidery threads are very soft, easy to work embroidery, even for the less experienced stitcher. And it gives a nice soft and matte finish.

Watercolours 3-ply hand-dyed cotton in variegated colors (pearl cotton #5). Skein 9 (x3 ply) meter. Despite frequently rinsing and drying, remants of colour can remain behind. This mainly occurs with deep red and blue dyed threads. Therefore we strongly advice you to ash these threads in warm soapsuds and rinse until the water stays clear. Leave the threads drying on a towel. After embroidering you can wash your work without discoloration. The threads of The Caron Collection are colorfast.
