Crafting Traditions: Free Clover and Irish Blessing Blackwork Pattern
Table of Contents
Happy St. Patrick’s Day!
I was trying out a cross stitch pattern for a four leaf clover, but I really struggled to picture it in my head when I was using the pattern software to make it. I then decided that I would just try to make one with Blackwork and add an Irish Blessing at the bottom for a nice little project. You could turn this into a framed image, wall hang, or as a card for a housewarming gift.
For example, here is the Clover and Irish Blessing Blackwork pattern as a card:
Materials for the Clover and Irish Blessing Blackwork
Embroidery Floss: DMC 699 (Anchor 923) and DMC 702 (Anchor 225)
