About this pattern

A round design like a Christmas ornament: a dark green Christmas tree in three tiers on a gold background, inside a brick red rim two stitches wide. A white five-point star stands on the top of the tree, six small gold lights shaped like plus signs sit on its branches, and six small white snowflakes of the same shape are scattered in the sky. The tree has a short red trunk and stands in a bank of white snow that fills the bottom of the circle. The colors are flat, with no outline and no shading. The left side mirrors the right. Full crosses only.

47 stitches wide by 47 high: 1,741 full cross stitches in 4 DMC colors (Very Dark Straw 3852, Terra Cotta 3830, Winter White 3865 and 1 more).
