About this pattern

Three baby farm animals sitting in a row on a strip of grass, all facing you. On the left is a pink piglet with a darker pink snout, two nostrils and pointed ears; in the middle a white woolly lamb with a dark gray face, ears and legs and a pink mouth; on the right a smaller yellow chick with an orange beak, orange feet and a little wing at each side. Each has two dark eyes with white glints. The grass is a band of two greens. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 63 by 19 stitches, a wide strip, and uses nine thread colors.

63 stitches wide by 19 high: 814 full cross stitches in 9 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Salmon 761, Winter White 3865 and 6 more).
