About this design

A fish in a witch's hat riding a broomstick — a small, funny design that is finished in about a minute of video, so it suits a last-minute gift or a patch on a jacket.

A good first project This design uses 4 stitches, all of them basics.

Before you start

  • The hat and the broom are the two darkest shapes; stitch them first and the fish reads as the subject immediately.
  • Keep the bristles uneven — evenly spaced lines turn the broom into a comb.

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 4 stitches — Stem Stitch, Straight Stitch, Satin Stitch and Satin Stitch + Stem Stitch — and the video works through each one from the first loop.

Is there a video tutorial for this pattern?

Yes — it runs 1:10 and is split into 5 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.
