Genshin Impact Cross Stitch Patterns

I have mentioned before how sometimes when I’m not sure what to write about I look up random things to see if there are cross stitch patterns related to them available. I have yet to be disappointed.

My daughter loves the video game Genshin Impact (and I’ve actually bought a Genshin crochet pattern before) so I wanted to look and see what kinds of Genshin Impact cross stitch patterns I could find. Turns out there’s a lot. Of course.

This sweet little collection of characters from Anglus Acus can be stitched all as one big sampler or you can just stitch the individual characters you like. Each character measures 73 by 70 stitches.

For more detailed patterns of various characters, head to 100os Patterns. Shown here is Diluc, designed by Ksenia Novikova, but if you head to their cartoon category you’ll also find Xiao, Kokomi, Raiden, Hu Tao and Venti. Diluc is 109 by 136 stitches and uses 28 colors and five blends. There are full and half stitches as well as French knots and back stitches.

If you’re a fan of the Aranara (and who isn’t?) you can stitch up some forest spirits with this pattern from sirithre. It is 64 by 64 stitches and uses 24 colors including full stitches and back stitch.

Or you can stitch up all the elemental signs with this design from Straight Stitching. The full pattern is about 7 by 7 inches (that’s 17.78 cm) and uses 21 colors, or of course you can just stitch your favorites.

Speaking of elements, Moogs Co has larger designs for each of the elemental symbols worked separately. (Shown here is hydro because I wanted some blue.) The pattern listing doesn’t indicate how big they are but they are circular so they look great in hoops as shown.

And because everyone needs more primos, you’ll also want to stitch up one of these Primogem patterns from The Frosty Needle. The pattern measures 44 by 47 stitches, which comes out to 3 by 3.5 inches/7.56 by 8.89 cm on 14 count fabric.

The cross stitcher behind the blog Sirious Stitches is quite into biscornu.

If you’re not, a quick primer: biscornu are three-dimensional cross-stitched objects with eight points, often with an indention in the middle that makes them look a bit like doughnuts without the hole. They can be just about any size and subject you can think of. They’re often used as pincushions but can also be seasonal decor or just decoration for any time of year.

I’ve got a collection of biscornu cross stitch patterns here.

Once you’ve stitched one or several (they are a little addicting) you might wonder what you can add to them to make them even more extra.

It very much depends on the design of your biscornu and the look you are going for, but Sirious Stitches has a great post all about some of the options you might consider.

I don’t want to give you the whole list because you need to go visit and see all of their great biscornu they’ve stitched, but one really easy thing that you can do with a lot of designs is take advantage of that center indent by adding a button, beads, silk flower or another embellishment.

This is great to do just with a basic button from your stash that coordinates with the design and colors of the cross stitching, but it’s extra fun if you have a button that’s on theme, such as a leaf for a fall biscornu or a flower shaped button for a floral design. Add a jingle bell to a Christmas pattern, or a charm if you don’t have a button that coordinates.

Just this one idea is sure to get you thinking about ways to embellish biscornu (not to mention other cross stitch projects) but head over to Sirious Stitches to see all of their ideas for embellishing biscornu to make these already fun projects even more fun.

Have you ever made biscornu? I’d love to hear about it!
