The other day I showed a look at a stitchable pumpkin spice latte...and you didn't think I'd keep that all to myself, did you? Of course not! Coffee is so much better with friends. And here's what I recommend:
Download the PSL pattern, transfer your pattern (you get to choose the size!), then order yourself a latte (I recommend a Venti!) and sit down to do some stitching at Starbucks.
If you look closely and compare the pattern in the PDF with my actual stitching, you might notice that the sprinkling of pumpkin spice isn't exactly the same.
Here's my tip: When a pattern has little details like sprinkles or fur (hopefully on an animal, not on a latte!), pay attention to the placement, but stitch by eye instead of trying to trace and stitch with precision. It'll make you happier, no one will ever notice the difference, and your work will get a little character.
Thank you for this! My brother is obsessed with PSLs, and his birthday is on Halloween, so I think you've helped me with his present... Chrissie x

Very cute! I think I may have to stitch one of these for my daughter's stocking this year xx
ReplyDeleteI love this!!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for this adorableness! I'm working on a crocheted cozy and am hoping to put this little cutie on it!
ReplyDeleteI am going make this ASAP! Can you tell me which colors you used? I don't have any where nearby to buy it so I am trying to choose some online. I need my PSL to be perfect just like the real thing !
ReplyDeleteI used DMC 3853 for the mug and sprinkles, DMC 712 for the whipped cream, and DMC 310 (black) for the face.
DeleteI have just found your blog, and I absolutely LOVE your work! Your patterns are ALL adorable!! I think I have pinned every one. :-) Thanks so much for sharing your awesomeness!
