Gudetama Cross-Stitch combines cross-stitching fun with 30 easy-to-follow patterns inspired by everyone's favorite lazy egg with the can't-be-bothered attitude.

But if you're the kind of person who doesn't have time for complicated crafts or dealing with other people, then this collection of 30 Gudetama-inspired designs are just for you.

First, you'll learn cross-stitching basics including tools and techniques and how to read a cross-stitch chart. Then you'll apply your new skills to a range of hilarious and lovable patterns organized into chapters like Lazy, Medium-Lazy, and Pay Attention--depending on how sluggish or motivated you're feeling. Finally, you'll be able to apply your masterpieces to projects like gift tags, greeting cards, and ornaments.

Whether you're an experienced cross-stitcher or new to the craft, you'll find a variety of poses and patterns in this book that are accessible and easy to learn. With a little patience and practice, anyone can bring these Gudetama-inspired masterpieces to life. And if not, just take a nap.
