About this pattern

A pastel mint green Christmas tree in three rounded tiers, with a darker green edge in place of a dark outline. A pale gold five-point star sits on top, two rows of small gold lights cross the upper tiers, five and seven, and a short tan trunk stands below. Low on the bottom tier is a small face: two dark square eyes, a one-stitch mouth and a pink blush below each eye. The left side mirrors the right. Full crosses only. It is 25 by 39 stitches and uses six thread colors.

25 stitches wide by 39 high: 499 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Light Nile Green 955, Medium Nile Green 913, Straw 3821 and 3 more).
