Pattern description
This counted cross stitch pattern captures a commanding moose positioned against a sweeping natural backdrop rendered in rich warm tones. The composition features the iconic antlered silhouette dominating a foreground meadow that transitions from deep forest green through golden grassland to a luminous sky. The color palette emphasizes earthy browns and burnished golds contrasted with bright blue sky, creating an inviting naturalistic mood that evokes autumn or early winter wilderness scenes.
At 140 x 140 stitches with 36 DMC thread colors, this advanced-level needlework project demands precision and patience from experienced stitchers. The intricate shading and tonal gradations throughout the moose's muscular form and surrounding landscape require careful attention to thread placement and color transitions. Worked on Aida fabric with the provided DMC color chart, this pattern rewards dedicated crafters with a striking wildlife portrait suitable for framing or displaying as a nature-themed home accent piece.
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.
