About this design
A cat sits in a bed of tall daisies and bellflowers, tail curled and a red collar at the neck. It is the most detailed pattern in the first collection — eight stitches across four minutes — and the video timestamps each one so you can jump straight to the petal you are stuck on.
Best after one finished hoop
This design uses 8 stitches and two of them need a little practice.
Before you start
- Leave the cat until last: the flowers establish the scale, and once they are in you can judge how much long-and-short shading the body needs.
- The bellflowers hang below the daisies, so stitch them from the stem upwards — working downwards pulls the thread across the open petals.
The pattern sheet
What you print: one A4 page.
The finished hoop above was stitched from this sheet. Print the file at 100% and the design comes out at its real size — the sheet already carries the pattern dimensions and the DMC colour numbers, so there is nothing to work out before you start.

Common questions
Before you download it.
Do I need to know any stitches before I start?
No. The design uses 8 stitches — Bullion Knot, Lazy Daisy, Stem Stitch, Fishbone Stitch, Satin Stitch, Back Stitch, Long and Short Stitch and French Knot — and the video works through each one from the first loop.
Is there a video tutorial for this pattern?
Yes — it runs 4:50 and is split into 8 timestamped chapters, listed above. Each chapter jumps straight to the part of the video where that stitch is worked.
Can I get this design as a kit instead of a printable pattern?
This page is the free A4 pattern only. ETSPIL kits ship a design pre-printed on the fabric with threads, hoop and a bound manual, so there is nothing to transfer — the kit range sits on our Amazon storefront.
