Pink Hilltop Castle
This delightful design brings to life a grand fairytale castle perched proudly atop a rocky hilltop, its tall pink and lilac towers crowned with fluttering red pennants. With its warm, storybook palette, it captures everything magical about the castles we imagined as children.
Whether you are stitching for yourself or creating a framed gift for someone who loves fantasy and folklore, this pattern is a wonderful project to pick up and lose yourself in. It would look truly lovely displayed on a wall in a reading nook or a child's bedroom.

CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so use the DMC column for those brands.CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so the codes above cover them too.
These lengths include the thread lost to tails and travelling, so they are what to buy rather than what ends up on the fabric. A spare skein of your main colours is still worth having, because dye lots vary between batches and matching one part way through is the hard part.
HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Gamma, Luca-S and Sullivans. Pick your brand when you start the project.
