The wolf is the personification of strength and courage. In some cultures, this beast was used as a totem. In our article we will show you some patterns for cross stitch with wolves.
Necessary materials
You will need a canvas for cross-stitch, a needle with a large and wide eye, floss thread of different colors and a hoop. Understanding wolf cross stitch patterns, you will realize that you will need a lot of gray and brown shades. As a rule, such work uses a floss of natural flowers.
What thread floss is better to choose? First of all, read reviews about the manufacturers. It is important for you that after a few years the threads do not fade, so pay special attention to this item. In addition, for embroidering wolves, more woolen threads than cotton ones will suit you.
As for the hoop, the wooden ones will be more convenient, since they hold the fabric well. Canvas can be for large stitches, medium or small. The smaller the stitches, the more detailed the pattern. Canvas designed for large stitches will be convenient for people with low vision. Below in the article you will see several cross-stitch patterns of wolves.
"Wolf" - patch on clothes
For such a patch, you will need a small section of the canvas measuring about 10 by 10 centimeters, a floss of blue, black, gray and white, a needle and a small hoop.
First, determine the center of the cross stitch pattern "Wolf". Then define the center on the canvas. To do this, dividing the sides of the canvas in half, draw an imaginary line between the opposite sides. The place where the lines intersect will be the center of the embroidery. Then take the floss, thread the needle and begin to sew cross stitches according to the pattern.
When finished embroidering, trim the edges of the canvas and sew them to the wrong side. The patch is ready! Now she can decorate clothes or bag. You can make a brooch with a similar embroidery. To do this, first make a felt base, and then sew or carefully glue the embroidery to it.
Below we present you a monochrome scheme for embroidering a wolf with a cross. If you just started embroidering or want to learn, it is better to take a similar pattern. Then you do not have to buy a lot of floss threads of different shades. Moreover, you will not experience confusion in the colors.
Cross stitch pattern for wolves for children
Below we present you a cross stitch pattern for children. Please note that there are still contours and mustaches that you have to make ordinary stitches.
First, take a 30 by 30 centimeter section of canvas and define the center. Then prepare a floss of gray shades, black, pink, green-yellow, cream and white. In addition, prepare a floss of green and yellow shades - for grass and a month.
Then determine the center on the diagram itself. Start embroidering with a cross-stitch. Carefully monitor the number of stitches so as not to be mistaken.
Cross stitch pattern "Happy couple of wolves"
To create such a picture, you will need not only materials for embroidery, but also knowledge of special programs for creating patterns. First you have to find a suitable image, then load it into the program. At the exit, you get a ready-made circuit. The only difficulty with this approach is the selection of thread colors. It is best to pay attention to the floss from a French manufacturer, as their palette is rich in colors.
The action algorithm is the same as in previous works. First you define the center of the pattern and canvas, and then you start embroidering. Please note that when working with the “Pair of Wolves” cross-stitch pattern in the process, you can easily make a mistake due to the volume and number of shades. Therefore, every 20-30 minutes, give the head and eyes a five-minute rest so that you do not have to redo the picture later.
