Pattern description
This sweet counted cross-stitch design captures holiday cheer through a whimsical composition: a white rabbit wearing a red Santa hat perches on a cheerful yellow banana, accompanied by a cardinal and wrapped gifts. The 74×74 stitch count on Aida fabric works up to a modest size perfect for framing or stitching into a greeting card. With 28 DMC thread colors and intermediate skill level, the design balances playful character details—big expressive eyes and outlined ears—with festive seasonal elements like holly leaves and scattered stars that evoke Christmas magic without being overly traditional.
