Crossweb is a British Etsy shop that has a lot of holiday patterns, florals and more. Let’s take a look!
As of this writing the shop has just under 90 patterns, and they are organized into a lot of categories such that some only have a couple of patterns in them. This is one shop that might be easier just to scroll through unless you are looking for something in particular.
In my scroll through I found this pretty pot of strawberries cross stitch pattern that I wanted to share. I love the coloration on the strawberries because it makes them look more realistic.
The design is 79 by 74 stitches, which comes out to 5.64 by 5.29 inches, or 14.33 by 13.43 cm, on 14 count fabric. It calls for 19 colors and includes full cross stitches and back stitching on the berries.
The biggest category on the site is Christmas, which only has 10 patterns, including a few sampler style patterns, a cocktail recipe and a very tired looking New Year’s owl.
Other “large” categories include botanical, flowers, food and bookmarks. I don’t know what makes something a botanical versus a flower because there are flower cross stitch patterns in the botanical section.
You’ll also find Halloween (and one Easter) cross stitch patterns, projects for weddings and babies. Rounding out the shop are projects related to art, animals, ballet, birds, cats, “under the sea” and insects/creatures (which has only one project, a super cute collection of bugs on flowers that would be cute in a child’s room).
There’s also a category called best wishes that includes a Mother’s Day project, a stitched birthday card and, for some reason, an English country cottage. Which I think proves as well as anything the statement from earlier about just scrolling through all the patterns to see what’s available because you never know what you’ll find.
