Little Red (Cattle Dog) Cross Stitch Pattern

Capture the irresistible charm of a much-loved Australian icon with the Little Red (Cattle Dog) Cross Stitch Pattern.
This sweet design features a cute little red cattle dog looking delightfully “tyred” — relaxed, content, and full of personality.
It’s a heart-melting project for dog lovers, Australian animal fans, and anyone who enjoys stitching designs with character and warmth.
Designed to finish at 34 x 44 cm on 14 count Antique White Aida, this generously sized piece makes a beautiful statement once framed.
The gentle expression and relaxed pose make it perfect for cosy homes, country décor, sewing rooms, or as a thoughtful handmade gift for cattle dog lovers.
The pattern is supplied as a chart only and includes a clear black & white graph, a full list of required DMC threads, and alternate fabric size and count options for stitchers who prefer linen or evenweave.
For added flexibility, you can easily substitute threads — we carry Cosmo threads, and a DMC to COSMO conversion chart (PDF) is available.
Whether you stitch it exactly as designed or personalise it with your own colour choices, this charming cattle dog is sure to bring smiles with every stitch.
