$ 3.90 excl. VAT
Graceful ballerina with a small puppy at her feet, rendered in a light, painterly style. Large color areas and very little confetti make for a calm, steady stitching rhythm.
Suits beginners and anyone wanting an easy, low-focus project.
Description
This design shows a poised ballerina in mid-dance with a tiny puppy beside her on the stage. The palette uses 14 DMC-based colors with an effective count of about 10, so you spend more time filling areas than changing threads. With only 29% coverage and around 5305 stitches, it feels light in the hand and progresses quickly.
Confetti is minimal at 1.4%, so you rarely deal with single, isolated stitches or constant color hopping. Edge detail is moderate, giving clear outlines without demanding intense concentration on every stitch. The small figure of the puppy adds a short section of slightly closer counting, but it is still straightforward.
This suits beginners who know basic cross stitch and anyone wanting a relaxing evening project with predictable, repetitive sections. Stitchers who prefer dense, highly detailed or full-coverage work may find this too simple. It is also a good choice for younger stitchers or as a gentle break between more complex pieces.
Ballerina With Tiny Puppy is designed to stitch well, not just to look good: the pattern’s structure supports a focused, steady rhythm and clear progress milestones. Difficulty-wise it sits in the range of Easy (Relaxed), which mainly reflects how much thread management and precision you’ll want to bring to the table. It’s compact enough to feel finishable quickly while still giving a polished result.
The palette stays calm and controlled, which makes the stitching rhythm straightforward and relaxing. Confetti stays low, so you’ll enjoy larger, cleaner stitch runs and quick visible progress. High edge contrast means crisp outlines and frequent color transitions, which gives the finished piece a sharp, high-definition look.
The overall feel leans calm, focus, craft, which helps the design stay visually coherent while you work through it. Many stitchers also read Ballerina With Tiny Puppy through themes like care, handmade, which can make the finished piece feel personal rather than purely decorative. A strong focal point plus consistent micro-structure keeps the stitching experience rewarding over time.

Stitched is the total number of stitches used (the overall workload).
Coverage is the percentage of the design area that contains stitched pixels (how “filled” it is).
Colors is the number of floss colors used (with an “effective” estimate that reflects how strongly colors actually appear).
Difficulty is a 1–10 score: 1 = very easy, 10 = extremely challenging.
Confetti_0 counts stitches that have no same-color neighbor directly around them; Confetti_1, Confetti_2, and Confetti_3 apply the same idea with a larger surrounding distance (+1, +2, +3 stitches).
Edge density indicates how “edgy” the design is (more edges = more frequent color changes).
Isolated is the share of stitches that appear as isolated single pixels (often the most interruption-prone stitches).
