Small St. Patrick’s Day Cross Stitch Patterns

February 18, 2025 by Sarah White

There are cross stitch patterns of all sizes and for all skill levels of most kinds of motifs you’d want to make, and while there are plenty of detailed projects to make for St. Patrick’s Day, sometimes you don’t have that kind of time. So let’s take a look at some little St. Patrick’s Day cross stitch patterns.

I love these little minis shown in tiny oval frames. The design is from Bella Rose Craft and they really look like they need to be little pendants to me. The bigger shamrock is 15 by 14 stitches, which is a little more than an inch square (2.5 cm) on 14 count fabric. The one with stems is 12 by 19 stitches which is a little less than an inch wide and 1.36 inches/3.5 cm tall. They are shown in 1.5 by 2 inch hoops.

These sweet gift takes would be fun to add to a St. Patrick’s Day treat or to use as greeting cards or bookmarks. Designed by Cross Stitch by Coconut, there are five designs to choose from. Each design is 25 by 40 stitches and to stitch all of them you will need 12 colors. I think the leprechaun cat is my favorite.

Speaking of cards, this design from Easy X Stitch Patterns includes four shamrocks with a Scottish plaid design. Not sure the Irish would approve of that, but it’s still cute. Each clover uses three colors and is 26 by 29 stitches.

Lardoargento Shop has a cute collection of six little St. Patrick’s Day patterns (the rainbow one is shown here). They also have a sheep, a pot of gold, two pints of beer, a leprechaun hat and a horseshoe. I love the little border around the designs, but you could leave it off to make the project smaller if you wanted. These are shown in 4-inch hoops.

While they are shown in one project here, the individual motifs from this design by Tidy Patterns would be fun to use individually on projects. Each one is about 60 by 60 stitches, so not as small as the other ones, but cute enough to be included here. The full project uses 20 colors.

This little sampler style St. Patrick’s Day cross stitch pattern runs a little less than 4 by 4 inches (that’s 10 cm) with a stitch count of 48 by 46. This green saltbox house and its hat wearing sheep use 13 colors, and the pattern is from The French Giraffe.

Get Witchy with Potion Bottle Cross Stitch Patterns

There are so many fun ways you can go when stitching Halloween cross stitch patterns or giving your place a slightly spooky or witchy vibe any time of year. I love the look of little potion bottles, whether they’re real bottles lined up on the mantle or shelf or cross stitched versions like these. 

The gorgeous Elixir of Life cross stitch pattern from Makaronka Stitch is decidedly not Halloween in its vibes, so it would be fun to stitch and display any time of year. This is also definitely not a pattern for beginners, as it uses 37 colors and 34 blends to make the beautiful colors. It also uses full and half cross stitches, back stitch and French knots. The design measures 82 by 115 stitches, which comes out to 5.8 by 8.2 inches or 14.88 by 20.86 cm on 14 count fabric. 

If you’re looking for something a little smaller but still a lot of fun, check out this set of six potion bottles from MIYA Stitch. I love how each bottle seems to have its own personality, from one with a pumpkin and witch hat to one with crystals, mushrooms, or a butterfly and flower. The patterns are 60 by 88 stitches each. That’s 4.3 by 6.3 inches or 11 by 16 cm on 14 count fabric. The full set uses 26 colors and blends. 

Or try this set of five mini potion bottles from Plenty of Strings. I love the colors on these and they’d look great as a set on one piece of fabric or individually stitches as shown. Each one fits in a 3-inch hoop.

These minis from Giselles Cross Stitch are really cute, too, though they are meant to be worked together as one piece. The whole pattern uses 26 colors and measures 93 by 107 stitches, which comes out to 6.6 by 7.6 inches or 16.8 by 19.4 cm on 14 count fabric. They’re perfect on black or a dark blue fabric. 

I also like this bigger set of potion bottles from SamXstitch, which is meant to be stitched as a set but you could also work individual bottles in their own frames if you’d rather. The full design uses 10 colors and is 123 by 173 stitches. Taht comes out to 8.78 by 12.36 inches/22.31 by 31.39 cm on 14 count fabric.
