The Ones Our Readers Come Back For

These are the ones people come back to again and again — each with its thread chart, stitch key and transfer guide written out in plain language.

How It Works

Three Steps, No Fuss

Step One

Find Your Pattern

Have a browse and open whatever takes your fancy. The thread chart and stitch key sit right alongside the design.

Step Two

Print and Trace

Print it out on ordinary paper at home. Each design comes with three simple ways to get it onto your fabric.

Step Three

Take Your Time

Work through the colour chart at whatever pace suits you. There's no rush — and we'd love to see it when it's finished.

Who We Are

We Keep the Same Basket You Do

Worn scissors, a thimble that finally fits, floss wound onto cards. We started GoEmbroidery because too many patterns turn up as a blurry outline and a shrug. Everything here is stitched by hand first and written up in full — thread numbers checked against what's actually in the basket.

  • Stitched by hand before we publish it
  • Thread numbers listed for DMC and Anchor, both
  • Large, clear charts — written to be read without squinting
  • Guides on scissors, hoops, needles, fabric and floss too
