Oscar and Slimey Cross Stitch Pattern (PDF Pattern)

Description

Bring a sweet, nostalgic slice of childhood to your stitching setup! This adorable pattern features Oscar the Grouch leaning thoughtfully over his metal can, happily perching his bright orange pet worm, Slimey, on his finger. Using just 7 DMC floss colors and 100% standard full cross stitches (no backstitching or tricky fractional stitches required!), it offers a smooth, relaxing, and quick stitching experience. Measuring roughly 6.4″ x 6.0″ on 14-count Aida, it displays beautifully inside a standard 7-inch or 8-inch round embroidery hoop, or framed as cute wall art for a nursery, craft space, or desk!
