Elephant blackwork embroidery pattern in the style of origami with repeating leaves and henna inspired motifs.
If you are familiar with cross stitch and in particular backstitch then you will have no trouble with blackwork. If you are new to blackwork then all my patterns include a 'How to blackwork' guide and it's super easy to get started.
Pattern is designed to fit an oval 6 inch hoop frame or 6 inch square frame with 14 count Aida but can easily be adapted to fit a variety of different shape and sized frames due to the nature of the repeating design.
All stitches are full backstitch.
2 chart versions are included but can easily be adapted.
- ★ Circle version - 6 inches x 6 inches
- ★ Square version - 6 inches x 6 inches
Once stitched it is easy to frame in a wooden hoop or flexi hoop (available at most craft stores) and looks great as wall art in your home.

These patterns are quite absorbing to work on. This isn’t the first I’ve bought, and it may not be the last! It’s easy to follow the chart but better if you’re alone or not being interrupted!! Thanks again for your lovely patterns!
