Pattern description
Create a Shabbat blessing needlework featuring two ornate blue candlesticks with glowing flames, framed by lush berries and trailing vines. At 126×126 stitches across 25 DMC colors, this intermediate-level cross-stitch pattern captures the warmth and reverence of Friday evening tradition. The cool blue tones of the candelabra contrast beautifully with the rich red berries and green ivy border, creating visual depth and a welcoming mood perfect for Judaica collections or as a meaningful gift for holiday celebrations.
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.
