After doing a post on fall leaf cross stitch patterns, I thought it would be cute to share some acorn cross stitch patterns, too. There’s definitely not as many options when it comes to acorn designs (especially those that don’t also include leaves) but here are a few to get you started.
If you want a basic no frills acorn cross stitch pattern, it’s this one from Luzatolye on Etsy. Using just two colors and a stitch area of 9 by 12 stitches, you can stitch this one up in just a few minutes to use as a greeting card or on linen, or use a bunch of them as a border for another project.
Daily Cross Stitch has a repeating pattern of easy acorns that you can use to fill a frame, or pick out a single one to use by itself. As shown the pattern is 80 by 80 stitches, or 5.71 inches square, and uses three colors.
This botanical acorn done in black and white threads from Cross Stitch Obsessed would be a perfect fit for adding a rustic touch to modern decor. It measures 90 by 114 stitches, which comes out to 6 and 3/8 by 8 3/8 inches, or 16.2 by 21.3 cm on 14 count fabric. It uses three colors.
If you want a simple project that includes leaves with the acorn, this one form Wistful Bird is a good choice. It uses just four colors and fits in a 4-inch hoop, and you could just stitch the acorn if you don’t wan to add the leaves.
I also like this oak branch with leaves for a project with a more realistic look. The design comes from Mason Art Maison and is about 200 by 200 stitches. It uses 11 colors.
Looking for more acorn cross stitch patterns? Here’s another cute one with an acorn and a bird I shared a few years ago.
