Pattern description
A charming gray rabbit sits upright with distinctly oversized pink ears and delicate facial features rendered in a cool, muted palette. The composition captures the bunny mid-gesture, with small pink nose and cheeks adding warmth to the predominantly cool-toned design. Wisps of green grass frame the base, grounding this intermediate-level needlepoint project at 114 x 114 stitches using nine DMC thread colors.
This counted cross-stitch pattern works beautifully on 14-count Aida fabric and suits stitchers ready to move beyond beginner projects. The combination of subtle gray tones, soft pink accents, and lime green creates a sophisticated yet playful aesthetic perfect for children's rooms or as a thoughtful handmade gift. The design's charming proportions and restrained color scheme lend themselves to framing as wall art or incorporating into quilted projects. Whether you're seeking a springtime stitching project or a year-round addition to your needlework collection, the free printable PDF chart makes it convenient to begin immediately.
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.
