Harnessed Horse and Cart
This charming design captures a chestnut horse in full working harness, stepping forward with quiet purpose as it pulls a neat two-wheeled cart. The warm reddish-brown tones of the horse are beautifully offset by the bold black of the harness and the crisp details of the carriage, making it a rewarding piece to build stitch by stitch.
Whether you have a love of horses, a fondness for traditional country scenes, or simply enjoy a design with real character, this pattern is a lovely choice. It frames up wonderfully and would make a thoughtful, personal gift for any equine enthusiast.

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, Dimensions, Gamma, Luca-S, PNK Kirov, Sullivans and Unitas. Pick your brand when you start the project.
