Few symbols carry as much warmth and wonder as the phoenix, and this bold design captures the legendary firebird mid-flight, wings spread wide in a blaze of amber, gold, and orange. Every stitch contributes to a piece that feels genuinely alive with colour and energy.

Whether you are drawn to mythology, love stitching creatures with real character, or are looking for a gift that carries a deeper meaning, this pattern is a rewarding and uplifting project to work on and to display.

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.
