Highland Coo Embroidery Kit for Adults | Paisley Highland Cow, 6-inch (15cm)

All fringe, all character. Scotland's favourite coo, in five stitches.

The fringe is the whole joke of a Highland cow and Sammy has leaned right into it: long orange paisley curls tumble down over the eyes, with cream horns curving out either side, all on a deep forest green ground. Paraffle originally drew this for a larger hoop and then reworked it for a 6 inch one — the same coo, a shorter evening.

Five classic stitches carry the whole design, which makes it a genuinely gentle place to start. The pattern comes printed on adhesive Solvy paper: peel, stick, and stitch straight over the lines, no tracing and no transfer pen. The stitch guide photographs each step and carries a QR code through to a video if you would rather be shown than told.

The finished coo stays in its 6 inch hoop, ready to hang.
