Did you know?
Greyhounds are among the most ancient dog breeds, depicted in Egyptian tombs and prized by European nobility for centuries. Their distinctive lean silhouette—long legs, deep chest, and narrow skull—makes them instantly recognizable. Originally bred for hunting and coursing, today they are equally beloved as gentle, quiet companions known for surprising affection despite their aristocratic appearance.

Pattern description
This elegant greyhound stands in profile silhouette, rendered in cool pastels—soft whites, pale grays, and gentle blue-green accents—against a warm beige linen background. The 104×104 stitch count creates a medium-sized motif perfect for a decorative panel or cushion cover. With twelve DMC thread colors and intermediate skill level, the pattern balances detail work in the dog's musculature and legs with broader color blocking in the body, making it accessible yet rewarding for stitchers comfortable with shading techniques.
