Vampire 1987
This delightfully sinister design captures a pale, wild-haired vampire with glowing red eyes, prominent fangs, and a dramatic red-lined dark cape, rendered in a bold and expressive style that nods fondly to the golden age of horror cinema. Vampire 1987 is a real statement piece that horror fans will absolutely love.
Whether you are stitching it for yourself or as a gift for a fellow enthusiast of gothic and fantasy art, this pattern rewards every stitch with bags of personality. It would look wonderfully striking once framed and displayed.

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.
