Did you know?
Hares are built for survival in open grasslands and woodland edges, with their characteristically long ears serving as sensitive heat-regulators and listening posts for approaching danger. Unlike rabbits, which live in burrows, hares are born fully furred and mobile—'leverets' that can hop within hours of birth. Their warm taupe coloring provides perfect camouflage in dried grass and undergrowth, making them nearly invisible until they bolt in their distinctive zigzag escape pattern.

With 14 DMC thread colors and intermediate skill level, the piece balances enough color variety to create depth without overwhelming the stitcher—ideal for a relaxing needlework project that yields an instantly recognizable, child-friendly result.
