Little Cow

This little cow brings me right back to my own crafting days as a kid! I love patterns like this one: a big friendly white face, two neatly mirrored black patches, and a rosy little muzzle that gives her all her charm. Reading the pattern is simple: one square on the chart equals one fuse bead on your pegboard, worked row by row from the top down. I’d go with a classic square pegboard here, it holds all 21 rows perfectly with no beads spilling off the edge. A quick ironing tip: lay your baking paper nice and flat and iron in small circular motions, don’t linger too long, so your colours stay crisp and bright. Once it’s pressed, this little cow makes the sweetest fridge magnet or keychain to gift a friend. A lovely first project to bead with your kids, they’ll be smitten!
