The pattern provides both a color guide and a technical chart to help stitchers understand thread placement and color selection.

Stitches and Methods

While the PDF content references a technical chart and color diagram, specific stitch names are not detailed in the provided materials. However, typical embroidery projects of this style commonly employ fundamental stitches such as backstitch for outlines, satin stitch for filling areas with solid color, and straight stitch for details. The beginner difficulty level suggests the pattern uses accessible, easy-to-learn stitching techniques.
