Baba Yaga's Home in the Forest
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Kateryna - Stitchy Princess
Ukrainian designer Kateryna (Stitchy Princess) is ever fascinated by her homeland's legends and specifically the character of Baba Yaga, a witch sometimes evil, sometimes kind, who lives in the magic forest.
This is not the first time that the designer tackles the subject of Baba Yaga, but this time we meet her flying on a broom with her cat, observed by two owls. To the right is her hut, perched on chicken feet, as the slavic legend goes.
The cross stitch chart is very easy to stitch, with a certain symetry. A border of mini Baba Yaga huts frames the top of the design, while miniature red mushroom, grouped in families of 1 dot, 2 dots and 3 dots add a touch of bright color to the woodland landscape.
The pattern is stitched on natural linen, over two threads. If you are not familiar with stitching on linen fabric, you could stitch on Aida linen.
