Red-Eyed Gargoyle
This design captures a fearsome yet fascinating gargoyle, rendered in moody greens and shadowy tones with piercing red eyes and subtle hints of warm colour at the ears. The face is detailed and characterful, with sweeping horns and a proud, watchful expression that gives the finished piece real presence on any wall.
It is a wonderful choice for anyone drawn to Gothic, medieval or fantasy themes, and the compact size makes it very satisfying to work through. Framed and hung, it makes a conversation-starting display piece or an inspired gift for a fellow lover of mythical art.

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.
