Skeleton Cat Halloween Embroidery Design, Instant Download

This halloween skeleton cat strip is a long thin band running 11 sizes wide. Four lil black kittens line up across the strip, each in a different pose, one standing tail up, one sitting hunched, one mid-walk, one stretching low. Bones show through the black silhouette like a faded X-ray, ribs, spine, skull, theyre all white on black. Cant get much more spooky-cute than this for kids halloween bits, I drew it back in october when one customer kept asking for a cuff motif for her grand-daughters trick-or-treat tote.

Eleven sizes carry stitch counts from 10,178 up to 20,300, single colour the whole way through which is honestly rare for a skeleton design in my catalog. Black bobbin sits under black top thread, theres no swaps at all. Density settles at 981 stitches per inch squared, dense enough that the bones pop crisp against the body. Width runs from 5.50 inches all the way out to 10.50 inches but height only steps 1.04 to 1.97, so think cuff band, hem trim, towel border, not a chest piece.

Bone work itself runs as satin column, thin white threading through the body of each cat. Skulls take tatami with two pin-prick eye holes left negative. Tails arch differently on each cat so they dont look stamped out of a copier, the rightmost kitten has a curlier tail than the leftmost two. Reach for a No.75 sharp paired with a poly mesh stab on any knit ground, swap to a cutaway for denim and canvas.

Wear it on pyjama cuffs, sweatshirt sleeve bands, hoodie hem trim, halloween tote handles, dish towel borders, table runner ends, kids backpack zip flaps. Avoid light grey or cream grounds, bones disapear against em, charcoal navy or pumpkin orange make em sing. Last halloween a mum picked the 8 inch file for matching her-and-daughter jumpers, the strip ran perfectly across the cuff seam. Drop to the 5.5 file for an adult tee pocket trim and hoop with a small frame. Aint nothing tricky about this one.
