About this pattern

A Halloween snow globe on a black base with an orange band. Inside, against a violet sky, stands a black haunted house with a pointed tower, a gabled wing, three windows and a door lit pale yellow. A small white ghost floats above the lower roof, white snow lies along the bottom of the glass and twenty single white flakes are falling. No outline thread and no lettering. Full crosses only. It is 51 by 52 stitches and uses five thread colors.

51 stitches wide by 52 high: 2,162 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Violet 553, Black 310, Winter White 3865 and 2 more).
