Baba Yaga's hut on chicken legs
CROSS STITCH PATTERN, DESIGNED BY Kateryna - Stitchy Princess
This design by Kateryna, a cross stitch designer based in Ukraine, draws its inspiration in folk tales and nature, and features the log cabin home of Baba Yaga, with its characteristic "chicken legs".
Hear Kateryna tell us about her Baba Yaga:
"Baba Yaga (the Bony Legged Witch) is one of the most famous characters of Slavic folk tales. Sometimes she is shown as ugly and evil but in other tales she is often quite helpful and kind, helping the hero solve their problem. My own Baba Yaga is rather cute, with long grey hair, a kind smile and not at all scary. She loves cooking her famous mushroom stew."
Baba Yaga is featured seated at her window, her chubby cat next to her though only its glowing eyes can be seen in the dark. Some more animals appear at the attic window.
The pattern focuses on the lovely sculpted woodwork of the hut's roof. Tiny forest motifs fill the background, wall-paper style.
The border features miniature replicas of the hut with its chicken legs.
