Lighthouse
This lighthouse cross stitch pattern captures a tall, boldly striped tower rising from a rocky outcrop, its red and white bands making it an instantly recognisable and satisfying subject to stitch. The design has a lovely sense of solidity and character that looks wonderful once framed.
Whether you are drawn to coastal scenes or simply enjoy a project with clear, confident shapes, this pattern is a joy to work through. It also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves the sea or has a fondness for classic maritime charm.

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.
