Before the tap… there was the swipe.
This bold, minimalist MetroCard cross stitch pattern is a love letter to a true New York icon — the little blue-and-yellow card that lived in every wallet, coat pocket, and junk drawer for decades. With its simple shapes and clean lines, this design is perfect for beginners and anyone who appreciates NYC nostalgia stitched straight up.
And yes — with the MetroCard officially retiring this month, this pattern is part tribute, part time capsule. Stitch it now, hang it proudly, and remember the days of “Please swipe again” and perfectly timed turns through the gate.
