Pattern description
Capture the majesty of African wildlife with this 270×270 stitch counted cross stitch pattern featuring two lions rendered in a warm, golden palette. The composition presents both felines in profile against a glowing sky, their noble expressions and detailed manes brought to life through 29 DMC thread colors.

This advanced-level pattern rewards experienced stitchers with intricate color blending and shading techniques that build depth and dimension across the expansive canvas.
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.
