About this pattern

A snowman dressed as a cowboy: a brown cowboy hat with a creased crown, a red band and a wide brim rolled up at both ends, and a red bandana tied round his neck with its point down his chest. He has two coal eyes, an orange carrot nose, a smile, two coal buttons and both twig arms raised. Pale blue shadow on the right of each snowball and a dark brown outline; the snow is white thread. Full crosses only. It is 34 by 42 stitches and uses six thread colors.

34 stitches wide by 42 high: 768 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Very Dark Hazelnut Brown 869 and 3 more).
