This is a fun and colorful pattern by Japanese needlework designer Kyoko Maruoka (Gera!). Featuring ten children in traditional dress holding hands, the chart is super versatile. All the children are the same size, so you can arrange and combine them at will. They can also be combined with the children in the first series of International Kids.

In addition to the main chart, the pattern includes three additional charts showing children with their animals.

This design is available as a printed pattern. Get up and stitching quickly with the coordinating thread pack which comes complete with 21 full skeins of DMC cotton embroidery floss.
