Walking Dead Cross Stitch Patterns

I should know by now that there are cross stitch designs (as well as crochet patterns, and usually lots of other crafts as well) to go with any fandom you can think of, but with it being Halloween time I decided to look for Walking Dead cross stitch patterns and, naturally, I was not disappointed.

I’ll admit to not making it through the whole series, though my husband watched not only the full original series, but also all of Fear the Walking Dead. Whether you’re a fan of the zombie genre or know someone who is, you’re sure to enjoy these Walking Dead cross stitch patterns.

Let’s start with a look at the early cast, when times were, maybe not simpler, but at least the body count of humans was a little lower. This cross stitch cast includes baby Judith and Hershel, among others, which dates it pretty well, but if you’re a fan of the early series you can grab this pattern from Pixels in Stitches on Etsy.

Creatively Stitching has a cross stitch pattern that explains why the humans have to take a stand against the zombies, along with some colorful arms shooting out of the ground (did that ever happen in the show?) and some weapons of zombie (and human) destruction. You can also find this one on Etsy. It measures 150 by 125 stitches.

If Negan is your favorite, you might want to stitch this ode to Lucille from Etsy seller Satirical Stitching. It looks like it uses three colors and the designer says it fits nicely in a 4 by 6 inch frame.

And if you’re looking for an immense project for a Walking Dead superfan, consider this movie poster style design from Zanna Cross Stitch on Etsy. This stunner is definitely for cross stitches with a lot of experience. It is 330 by 400 stitches and it’s solid stitching, using 54 different colors. When finished it will be 23.4 by 28.4 inches if worked on 14-count fabric. And well worth all that work for someone who really loved the show! (They have other options in a similar style if you want to go looking.)

As a knitter, I love a good sheep motif, so let’s take a look at some cute sheep cross stitch patterns.

If you want to stitch a little sheep, this mini square from Good Dog Needleworks is a nice choice. It uses just three colors and measures 32 by 32 stitches. That’s 2.2 inches or about 5.5 cm square if you stitch it on 14 count fabric.

I also love these two little sheep, which you can stitch together or in individual hoops and shown. The designs are form Threadbound Art and use six colors. They are slightly different in size, with one being 21 by 17 stitches and the other 21 by 20. They fit in four inch frames if you work them on 14 count fabric.

You can stitch a sweet sheep bookmark with this design from Kits by SA Stitch. This is not for the person who doesn’t like back stitch, because there’s a lot of that here, but it is really cute. It measures 30 by 91 stitches and uses 10 colors. That will make your bookmark about 2.4 by 6.5 inches, or 6 by 16.5 cm on 14 count fabric.

Stitch a pretty scene of sheep in a meadow with this design from Motok Nytok. It uses 21 colors and the design is 99 by 73 stitches. On 14 count fabric that makes it about 7.07 by 5.21 inches, or 17.96 by 13.24 cm.

This yarn full of cross stitch sheep has a bit of a knitting twist because the sheep all look like they have sweaters on. The design is from Soda Stitch Design and it measures 179 by 216 stitches. The full design uses 27 colors. On 14 count fabric it will work out to 12.78 by 15.42 inches, or 32.48 by 39.19 cm.

Another great one with a knitting theme is this one where the wool is coming off the sheep and straight onto the needles. This one is from Happy Cross Stitchers and uses 12 colors. The pattern is 137 by 137 stitches, which comes out to 9.7 inches or 24.86 cm square on 14 count fabric. This would be a fun one to stitch for the knitter in your life (even if that is you).

Or you can stitch the field of sheep of a knitter’s dreams with the Happy Sheep chart from Charts and Stuff. These per-colored sheep can be stitched as shown or worked in any colors you like. The eyes are French knots but you can just stitch them in white if you’d rather.
