Pattern description
Capture feline mystery with this striking counted cross-stitch design featuring two luminous golden eyes against a deep black backdrop. The 103 x 103 stitch pattern uses just 9 DMC thread colors to create bold, glowing cat eyes with contrasting white highlights and shadows that give them dimension and intensity. Perfect for intermediate stitchers seeking a compact project with maximum visual impact, this design works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric and translates the pixel-art style into a mesmerizing finished piece that draws the eye from across a room.
Stitch planning checklist
- Measure your fabric against the stitch count to confirm finished size.
- Sort floss by symbol before you start; pre-thread a few needles for speed.
- Work in small blocks to keep counting accurate and spot mistakes early.
- Backstitch at the end of each session so outlines stay crisp.
