Two brown otters floating side by side on blue water, looking forward with calm, friendly expressions.

Otters Floating Together

Wild AnimalsIntermediate11 coloursAbout 5 days of stitching (~8 hrs/day)

There is something quietly delightful about a pair of otters simply being together, and this design captures that gentle companionship beautifully. Two brown otters float side by side, their expressions soft and unhurried, perfectly at ease on the water.

This is a lovely choice for anyone who adores wildlife or wants to add a touch of natural warmth to a room. Framed on a wall or wrapped as a gift, it is the sort of piece that always draws a smile from anyone who sees it.

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.
