To stitch this design, you will need a piece of Aida fabric measuring at least 15×15 cm on 14-count Aida. The primary colors featured in this pattern are DMC codes 310, 318, 453.
Yes. The high contrast between jet-black fur and a light background means most cells fall into large solid color blocks with very little confetti stitching. The amber eye detail is the only area requiring close attention, making this a great first animal project.
The palette centers on deep blacks and very dark navies for the fur, warm amber and golden yellows for the eyes, and a range of light greys and cream for the background. Exact DMC codes and skein counts appear in the pattern key below the chart.
Stitched on 14-count Aida the finished piece measures 15×15 cm (roughly 6×6 inches). You can adjust the fabric count to scale it up or down—16-count produces a slightly smaller result while 11-count gives a larger, bolder piece.
