About this pattern

A white rabbit and a yellow chick standing on a strip of grass and looking at each other across a pink and white striped Easter egg. The rabbit sits on the left in side view with two long ears lined in pink, a dark eye, a pink cheek, one front paw and a round tail; the chick on the right has a dark eye with a white glint, a short orange beak, a small gold wing and two thin orange legs. Dark brown outline; the chick's legs and the grass have none. Full crosses only. It is 64 by 33 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

64 stitches wide by 33 high: 1,099 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Forest Green 989 and 4 more).
