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.
These lengths are a guide. It's worth buying an extra skein or two of your main colours to allow for mistakes and tension differences.
HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Gamma, Luca-S and Sullivans. Pick your brand when you start the project.
