Easter Cat Cross Stitch Pattern PDF – Spring Tabby Kitten

Easter Cat Cross Stitch Pattern – Spring Tabby Kitten

Bring a little spring garden into your next embroidery project. This Easter cat cross stitch pattern PDF features a curious gray tabby kitten peeking over a rustic wooden plank, surrounded by pink blossoms, spring tulips, sunny daffodils, butterflies and three pastel Easter eggs.

Designed for cat lovers and patient stitchers, this detailed counted cross stitch chart offers a substantial seasonal project without an enormous thread palette: 200 × 250 stitches in 13 DMC colors. The illustration makes a charming spring decoration or a handmade gift once stitched.

At a glance

• Design: 200 stitches wide × 250 stitches high
• PDF: One 14-page digital file (cover, 12 color-and-symbol chart pages, and a DMC floss list)
• Thread palette: 13 named DMC shades
• Stitch count: 42,668 crosses listed across the 13 floss entries; this is the sum of the supplied legend, not the 50,000 squares in the full grid
• Strands: 2 strands of embroidery floss for cross stitches, as specified in the chart
• Difficulty: Best suited to intermediate or patient stitchers comfortable following a detailed multi-page chart (editorial assessment based on size, not an official PDF rating)

Finished design size by fabric count

Measurements below are calculated from the full 200 × 250-stitch grid and exclude extra fabric for mounting or framing.

Add extra material around the stitched area for your preferred finishing method. The pattern can be worked on other compatible fabrics; actual stitched dimensions will depend on fabric count.

What’s included in the printable PDF?

You receive one 14-page counted cross stitch PDF pattern: a full-color illustration and design overview on page 1, twelve numbered chart pages with color-coded symbols on pages 2–13, and a floss legend on page 14 with DMC numbers, thread names, symbols and individual stitch counts. The PDF does not include a separate monochrome chart or a verified Pattern Keeper file.

Spring details to stitch

The design combines the tabby’s expressive yellow-green eyes, pink nose, black-and-cream stripes and fluffy paws with cherry blossom branches, pink tulips, yellow daffodils, white daisies, blue blossoms, three floral Easter eggs and two butterflies. A wooden plank anchors the foreground while the open areas remain part of the chart’s intentional negative space.

13 DMC colors used

The supplied floss legend lists 162, 310, 727, 838, 892, 905, 906, 961, 972, 3689, 3782, 3863 and B5200. Use the PDF symbol key rather than visual color matching when choosing floss. White DMC B5200 is included for intentional stitched details and should not be confused with unstitched background squares.

Digital pattern – no physical kit

After purchase, download the PDF from your account or order email when WooCommerce makes the file available. This purchase is for the digital pattern only: no completed embroidery, printed chart, Aida fabric, floss, needle, hoop or frame will be shipped. Lifestyle photos are illustrative mockups, not photographs of a hand-stitched sample; refer to the actual PDF cover and chart for exact pattern appearance.

Frequently asked questions

Is this suitable for beginners?

The symbol chart uses only 13 DMC colors, but it is a larger 200 × 250-stitch project with over 42,000 listed crosses and multiple chart pages. It is better for stitchers who have completed smaller counted cross stitch pieces.

Can I use 14-, 16- or 18-count Aida?

Yes. The table above shows how the stitched size changes with fabric count. Choose a count that suits your eyesight, preferred finished size and stitching experience.

Is the download a stitched image or a printable chart?

It is a printable counted cross stitch chart with symbols and a DMC thread list, not an embroidery kit and not a finished stitched item.

Are the butterflies, flowers and Easter eggs included in one design?

Yes. Everything shown in the chart preview belongs to one 200 × 250-stitch composition; there are no separate mini-pattern files.

Can I view the chart on a tablet?

Any PDF reader that opens the supplied file can display it digitally. Special compatibility with third-party stitch-tracking applications has not been tested.
