Farm AnimalsBeginner1 colours9 hours of stitching

This Horse Woodcut pattern captures the noble character of a horse rendered in the bold, graphic style of a traditional woodcut print. Every line feels deliberate and strong, giving the finished piece a vintage charm that looks wonderful once framed and displayed on a wall.

Worked in a single thread colour, this design is a wonderful choice for stitchers who enjoy a focused, meditative project with a satisfying result. It would make a thoughtful gift for anyone with a love of horses, the countryside, or classic illustrative art.

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.
