Pattern description
This 62 x 62 stitch counted cross-stitch pattern captures an adorable lamb with warm peachy-cream tones and rosy accents. The sweet face features warm brown eyes and a cheerful expression, complemented by soft pastel coloring throughout. Using 17 DMC thread colors, the design balances simplicity with charming detail work.
Ideal for intermediate stitchers, Agnello presents a satisfying middle ground—manageable in scope yet rich enough in color transitions to develop your blending and shading skills. The soft palette of creams, pinks, and peachy hues creates a gentle, nursery-friendly mood perfect for baby gifts, children's room décor, or Easter-themed needlework projects. Stitch this on white or cream Aida fabric for maximum color impact, and frame it as a standalone piece or incorporate it into a larger farmyard sampler collection.
Stitch planning checklist
- Measure your fabric against the stitch count to confirm finished size.
- Sort floss by symbol before you start; pre-thread a few needles for speed.
- Work in small blocks to keep counting accurate and spot mistakes early.
- Backstitch at the end of each session so outlines stay crisp.
