This cross-stitch pattern lets a little bat hang upside down from a pine branch, pink Santa hat and all, with a shy smile and rosy cheeks. It's for anyone who keeps a bit of Halloween around all year. The chart uses only full crosses - no backstitch, no fractional stitches, no knots - so it's a relaxing stitch. Leave the background bare, and your fabric becomes part of the scene.
Pattern details
The design is worked in full cross stitches only, with no backstitch, no fractional stitches and no French knots, so it is a relaxed project for a beginner and a quick one for an experienced stitcher. The background is left as bare fabric, so the colour of your Aida is part of the finished picture.

How to download
Nothing ships. After Etsy confirms payment, sign in at Etsy.com in a mobile or desktop browser, open Your account, choose Purchases, then choose Download Files beside this order. Etsy’s app does not show the download action.
Personal use
This pattern is for personal use. You can stitch it for yourself and stitch it as a gift. Please do not resell, share, copy or redistribute the files, sell the chart as your own, or use it for mass production. The design and the chart stay the property of Stitch Jam Studio.
Good to know
You are buying a PDF chart, not a finished piece and not a kit. No fabric, floss or hoop is included. Colors on a screen can look different from real DMC floss. The preview shows how the finished piece could look. Your result depends on fabric count and floss. Files are in English. You need a PDF reader to open the charts. Free ones work fine.
Returns
Because this is an instant download, all sales are final. No refunds, returns or exchanges once the files are available. If a file will not open, the download stops halfway, or you got the wrong item, message me and I will fix it.
- Print it. Hoop it. Stitch it loud.
