Isle of Man Cross Stitch Pattern: Tiny Flag Map

Isle of Man cross stitch pattern with the gold triskelion at its heart, the three armoured running legs that make the Manx flag one of the most recognisable in the world, set on a red field with "Isle of Man" charted into the island shape. Four DMC colours, 30 x 38 stitches, with the little Calf of Man stitched in off the southern tip.

A bit more detail in this one: full and part cross stitches shape the triskelion legs, with French knots and backstitch finishing the fine work. Lovely in a mini hoop, and a satisfying make if you enjoy a design with a few fractionals in it. One of the Tiny Little Countries collection.

The Isle of Man sits in the Irish Sea between Britain and Ireland, and its three-legged triskelion is one of those flags you only need to see once to remember. This little map puts the whole island, legs and all, on a chart you can hold in your palm. Pick it up with its neighbours in the Northern Europe Cross Stitch Pattern Bundle, great value if you're stitching the set.
