Medieval toad cross stitch pattern PDF, a solemn olive toad keeping watch over a jar of dark berry jam. An instant-download counted chart drawn in the spirit of a manuscript bestiary beast, for gothic, goblin core and dark cottage core stitchers.
He sits square and frontal on the cloth-tied lid, red-eyed and entirely unbothered, while the jar below glows deep garnet with a blackberry and small red berries suspended in it. One golden-olive leaf hangs at the base. The palette is almost all deep tones, garnet, grape, golden olive, pewter and black, lifted by a single soft peach highlight on the glass, so the whole piece reads dark and moody rather than sweet.

How to download
Nothing ships. Your files are ready as soon as payment clears. On a computer: go to You, then Purchases and reviews, then hit Download next to this order. In the Etsy app: go to You, then Purchases, open the order and tap Download. Etsy also sends you a download link by email. You can re-download from that same page any time, so nothing gets lost.
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.
