Jonathan Adler single-handedly made needlepoint cool again, and he's got me wanting to take up the hobby. If and when I do, you won't catch me needlepointing any cat motifs. Of course, my pattern will have to be hip. (Sorry, cat lovers.) I'm considering kicking off with a Hug Needlepoint Kit ($106) from former graphic designer Emily Peacock, which comes complete with a canvas, yarn, a needle, and instructions (a must) — essentially all you need to get your NP on! Well, OK, some patience and maybe a glass of wine may also be crucial . . .

My sister love to needlepoint and cross stitch but finding patterns that aren't well goddy or old looking is super hard, and the selection where I live is very slim. These look super cool.

2I'd love to take up needlepoint and these are adorable--not that I really need another excuse to hoard yarn like I do for my knitting!
