Mermaid Cross-Stitch Patterns

I guess it’s because I’ve been thinking about the beach that I went looking for mermaid cross-stitch patterns. Of course a lot of what you find is Ariel from “The Little Mermaid,” which is not exactly the look I was going for.

I did find a few mermaid cross-stitch charts, including several at Cross Stitch Pattern.net. There’s one that looks kind of like an elf, one that’s more human in blue and white, another with a back view and a third in gold. They’re all lovely.

This stylized mermaid with a long ponytail is another striking option. The site is in Russian but you don’t need the words.

And for those who like the cartoon mermaid, here’s one from the Wayback Machine that is inspired by a little mermaid but not a literal copy.

Have you ever stitched a mermaid? I think it would be a lot of fun!

They fit in fine with your holiday decor but you can also leave them out as long as there’s cold weather.
