Pattern description
This counted cross-stitch pattern captures a snow leopard's serene expression through cool gray and white tones punctuated by striking sapphire-blue eyes. At 112 x 112 stitches using 28 DMC thread colors, the intermediate-level design balances technical challenge with accessible stitching, making it ideal for crafters ready to expand beyond beginner projects. The soft, frosted palette creates a calming mood while the feline's direct gaze and detailed whisker work add personality and depth.
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.
