Pattern description
This 77×77 counted cross-stitch pattern captures a cheerful woven basket overflowing with vibrant Easter eggs in bold primary colors—a cyan egg, sunny yellow, and striking red each nestle into golden straw. The 12-color DMC palette and intermediate skill level make it an accessible spring project for stitchers ready to move beyond basics. The composition balances intricate stitch details in the basket weave with solid color blocks in the eggs, offering satisfying variety throughout the needlework.
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.
