If you’re looking for some funny cross stitch patterns to stitch for your snarkiest friend (even if that’s you!) you need to check out Cross Stitch Traveler on Etsy.
You’ve got to love a storefront where the “snarky-funny” category is 560 items deep (compared to a total of 961 items in the whole store as of this writing).
I couldn’t possibly give you a full rundown in the few hundred words I have here, but there’s lots of fun sweary, sarcastic, work humor and generalized snarkiness.
If there’s a cat involved you know I’ll find it so I had to share “She believed she could, but her cat was asleep on her lap so she didn’t.” This one features a great blend of sass, pretty flowers and a cat, and it also just looks fun to stitch. It uses 11 colors in a size of 123 by 131 stitches. That comes out to 8.75 by 9.5 inches, or 22.3 by 23.8 cm on 14 count fabric.
But of course there’s lot of other great stuff beyond the snarky and funny section, so let’s check some of that out, too.
In the holiday section you’ll find Christmas and Halloween patterns, and there’s still some snark in here, as well as cats in pumpkins and wrapped up in Christmas lights. There are pretty flowers and plants and a few floral frames you can use to stitch up your own sentiments such as a birth or wedding announcement or just add your own text of whatever sort.
The quotes section overlaps a bit with snark (and you’ll find some fun workplace humor here if you want to stitch up something for a Secret Santa or other office gift exchange) but also has some sweet and funny content. And the animals, birds and insects section is filled with cats, butterflies and bees, birds and other creatures (and even a few dogs).
