Witch with long dark hair and a tall black hat holds a flaming torch behind a black cauldron glowing orange.

Witch With Torch and Cauldron

Halloween & HorrorIntermediate11 coloursAbout 4 days of stitching (~8 hrs/day)

A long-haired witch in a tall, pointed hat raises a flaming torch while a glowing cauldron bubbles in front of her. Warm oranges and yellows light up the dark robes and hat, giving the whole scene a lovely flickering, candlelit mood.

This design suits anyone who enjoys spooky, fantasy-flavoured stitching, whether you are a Halloween devotee or simply love a bit of magic. Once finished, it looks wonderful framed on the wall for the autumn season, and it would make a thoughtful gift for a friend who loves all things witchy.

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.
