Who says activism can’t be adorable? This free cross-stitch pattern combines two of the best things in life: tiny, fierce kittens and the burning desire to dismantle oppressive systems. Because while some girls want to have fun, the coolest ones just want to punch autocracy in the face (metaphorically… or not).

Whether you’re stitching for yourself, your favorite revolutionary bestie, or just to annoy that one weird libertarian in your crafting group, this design is here to remind everyone that cuteness and resistance go hand in hand.

Why This Pattern?

• Kittens = universally loved.
• Fighting autocracy = morally necessary.
• Combining them = peak artistic praxis.

Autocrats hate joy, freedom, and probably kittens (monsters). So let’s weaponize craftivism with this sweet-but-spicy design.

How to Use This Pattern

1. Download it (it’s free—unlike democracy under authoritarian rule).
2. Stitch it (while listening to riot grrrl music or true crime podcasts about fallen dictators).
3. Display it (on your wall, your tote bag, or directly in the face of anyone who says “politics don’t belong in crafts”).

A Message to Autocrats & Their Enablers

Your bootlicking era is so over. The girls are stitching, scheming, and coming for your entire system. Stay scared.
