Wind, movement, and the particular drama of a figure caught in the grip of natural forces — Boreas is Waterhouse at his most dynamically composed and atmospherically charged, a beautifully painted study of physical energy and Pre-Raphaelite beauty in equal measure.

WHAT IS IN A PATTERN

Printable PDF chart (A4 or US Letter), a color cover page of the finished design, a DMC thread list with lengths needed, step-by-step stitching instructions, full color symbol chart and an instant download after checkout.

Works on phone, tablet, or computer — and fully compatible with Pattern Keeper for digital progress tracking.

HOW YOU RECEIVE IT

You get a download link on the order page and by email straight after checkout.

STANDARD VS LARGER

We give you two symbol size options so you can stitch the way you love.

Standard Symbols – A little bigger than the usual charts, these fit more of the pattern on each A4 page. Perfect if you like fewer pages and are comfy with regular-sized symbols.

Large Symbols – Around 30% bigger, making them super easy on the eyes. They do take up more pages, but many stitchers find them much more relaxing to follow.

Note: Bundled Sets may not include the option of Larger Symbols.

RETURNS

Unfortunately for digital downloads, we have a no-return policy. However if there is an issue with your chart, do let us know and we will replace the chart for you.

About the artist

John William Waterhouse

John William Waterhouse (1849–1917) painted women the way dreams paint them — luminous, mysterious, and caught in moments of quiet tension that feel suspended in time. The English Pre-Raphaelite painter spent his career immortalising figures from mythology, literature, and legend with a warmth, beauty, and emotional depth that feels as alive today as it did in Victorian England. His most celebrated works — A Mermaid, The Lady of Shalott, Psyche Entering Cupid's Garden — are among the most beloved and searched subjects in the entire cross stitch kit world, and for good reason.

Our John William Waterhouse cross stitch kit collection brings his most iconic works to life in counted cross stitch form.

Love it!

Just received my Boreas kit, the colours are simply gorgeous!!! Package got here in Canada very rapidly. I would have given a five star review if the option to get an enlarged pattern would have been still available. This is my 3rd kit and it won’t be my last!

Hi Johanne, thank you so much for your review and valuable feedback! Although the option for larger patterns are gone, you can always add a note with your order if you would like your printed chart to have larger symbols. But definitely ok if you still want larger than that :)

UPDATE: We have done some amendments to our site today to make it easier for you to request for a larger symbols chart for either your kit order or PDF. In every product, there is a link in the bottom FAQ to add the option as a product to each order.

Cheers!
