Pattern description
This striking counted cross-stitch design features a bold magenta horse rendered in sweeping chevron curves, creating dynamic movement across the canvas. The 110 x 110 stitch count on Aida fabric uses just four DMC thread colors to build depth and dimension in the rich jewel-toned palette. The intermediate skill level makes this pattern approachable for stitchers ready to tackle flowing, organic shapes while working with smooth thread transitions. Perfect for equestrian lovers or anyone drawn to modern, geometric interpretations of classic subjects.
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.
