Wooden Barrel
This Wooden Barrel cross stitch pattern captures the honest charm of a traditional oak barrel, rendered in warm woody tones with just enough detail to feel satisfying without being overwhelming. The rounded staves, metal banding and rich earthy palette give the finished piece a lovely rustic quality.
Perfect for anyone who appreciates vintage craftsmanship and traditional imagery, this design would look wonderful framed in a kitchen, study or cottage-style interior, and makes a thoughtful handmade gift for those who love all things nostalgic.

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.
