Ted Lasso Cross Stitch Patterns

There are so many great shows coming to an end right now, but one of the ones I’m saddest about is Ted Lasso. While the show hasn’t stayed as cheery as it started, I still love this crew of weirdos and their scrappy little team that’s become a family over the years. So in honor of the show’s last episode airing this week I bring you Ted Lasso inspired cross stitch patterns.

Of course we’d have to start with a Believe sign, which you can make to hang above any door you like with this pattern from PandoStitch on Etsy. It uses just two colors and is 75 by 38 stitches, or about 5.3 by 2.7 inches on 14 count fabric, so you can stitch this one up in no time regardless of your skill level.

Andrew Heiss made a cross-stitched version of the AFC Richmond crest that you can download as a chart or an Illustrator file if you want to change it up in any way. It uses four colors and is 48 by 49 stitches.

Ted Lasso characters are known for sharing good advice of the sort that definitely should be embroidered on a pillow, or cross stitched on a wall hanging, anyway. “Don’t You Dare Settle for Fine” is one example converted to stitching by Etsy seller Sunshine and Stitchery. This one is 100 by 50 stitches and uses two colors. It’s mostly letters so this would be a good beginner project (though, in stitching, settling for fine is actually fine).

And if you just need Ted cheering you on, stitch up this thumbs-up cross stitch pattern from Slumber Party DIY on Etsy. This one is a little more involved in that it uses 11 colors in a stitch area of about 5.6 by 6.4 inches, but it’s well worth the effort for a little Midwestern charm.

Of course there are a few slightly salty options available, too. Harness your boss ass bitch energy with help from this cross stitch pattern from The Stitch Crypt, or remember how they used to cheer for Roy Kent with this one from Sonova Stitch.

I was recently approached by Alyssa, the cross stitcher behind the Etsy shop Stitchonomy, to take a look at her cross stitch pattern subscription club, known as The Pattern Club.

I took a look around and there’s a lot of cute stuff and fun options you’ll want to check out, especially if you love themed patterns that are small, easy to stitch and fun to combine.

The Pattern Club combines cross stitching with a social network. When you open the site you’ll see a news feed and have the ability to share updates much like you would on Facebook. You can see who is online, have buddies and post your own updates and photos. The community aspect is a little sparse right now but that should only grow.

The stitch along hub is the place to find the most recent patterns and information on the current stitchalong. As of this writing the Book Lover’s stitchalong was happening, with little designs like Peter Rabbit, a skull for Hamlet and keys for Jane Eyre as well as authors including Arthur Conan Doyle, Charles Dickens and Jane Austen.

Other pattern collections include European designs, Halloween, ocean life, an allotment garden and more. Alyssa tells me there’s a new theme every month that either she picks or members in the community suggest. You can stitch just the patterns you want or put them together to make a larger collage.

The Stitchanomini vault gives you access to all of the previous patterns, and new patterns are released daily through the stitchalong. You can download individual patterns (most of them are 19 by 19 stitches) as PDFs or Pattern Keeper files. The PDFs include a color and black and white chart as well as a floss list.

Another cool thing you can do is build your own pattern collages from all of the squares that have been released. The collage configurator allows you to add patterns of your choosing to a grid ranging from 2×2 patterns up to 4×4. You can scroll through all the current patterns or search by theme and size to make a project that suits your needs. (Above is an example I made kind of at random but you get the idea.)

If you want to check it out, you can grab a three-day free trial and see all the pattern options. Membership is $7.99 a month, or if you pay for a year at a time you’ll get two months free. In addition to the patterns in the club, members receive discounts on patterns and supplies purchased through the shop within the club. Annual members get access to three paid/retired stitchalongs and lifetime members receive all retired patterns.

If you check it out I’d love to hear what you think!
