Haunted House Pincushion Cross Stitch Pattern

October 11, 2023 by Sarah White

I told myself I was done sharing Halloween cross stitch patterns, because I wanted to give you all plenty of time to finish them before it’s actually time.

But.

Then I saw this amazing 3D haunted house pincushion cross stitch pattern and I knew I just had to share it. There was no way it could wait until next year. It was all I could do not to buy the pattern immediately and start working on it before I told you all about it.

Designed by Living on the Rainbow, this little house measures about 7 centimeters (or just under 3 inches) when finished as shown, worked on 16-count fabric. But there are a lot of details packed into that tiny package, and along with the assembly required the designer suggested this pattern for experienced stitchers.

The full pattern is 23 pages long and includes detailed instructions for assembly.

You can get this pattern on Etsy, and while you are there check out all of their amazing designs. For Halloween you will find 3D spell books to stitch, a jack o’lantern/scarecrow, ghost, potion bottle and more traditional designs featuring ghosts going about their business of knitting, cross stitching, taking care of their plants and, of course, haunting the library (how else are we going to finish our TBR piles?)

There are also great designs for other holidays and themes (mostly Christmas but there are also some cute Alice in Wonderland patterns that are sort of Halloween adjacent), and they’re all just so much fun I need to stop talking so you’ll go check them out.

Designer Spotlight: Knotty Bytes

There’s not much to say about Etsy seller Knotty yites other than if you like pop culture cross stitch patterns this is the place for you. It’s pretty much all they do, and there’s a wide range of fandoms and characters represented. 

I first learned about this shop when I was doing Only Murders in the Building cross stitch patterns, and if you like that one the rest of their patterns are similar in vibe. They feature little characters in a lineup, sometimes labeled with the name of the show/movie they are from or with other text. 

There’s everything from She-Ra to Ghostbusters, Lost to Xena, Game of Thrones to the MCU. While lots of the designs only cover a few characters, there are some larger ones as well. 

Like this “space superhero” alphabet full of characters (and one spaceship!) from the Star Wars universe. The full design is 196 by 272 stitches and uses 81-86 colors (the range being because there are actually two alphabets with some different characters to choose from, or mix and match your favorites). 

If you’ve ever wanted to stitch up Katniss and the mockingjay pin, an homage to Cersei Lannister or Jem and the Holograms, this shop has got you covered. Or you can try the X-Men, Guardians of the Galaxy or characters from the video game Mass Effect. 

Like I said, there’s a wide variety. 

If this sounds like the kind of shop you would like, check out all the options at Knotty Bytes. I’d love to hear if you make something from this shop (or if you have already!).
