Zestaw do haftu krzyżykowego „Śnieżny anioł”

“Snow angel” shows a fox in a red snowsuit making a snow angel in a drift.

What the picture shows

The fox lies on its back with its paws flung out, and the print has already appeared around it — an oval with spread “wings”. The snowsuit is bright red, the muzzle and tail ginger. Above it “Let it snow” is stitched in blue script, with sprigs of red berries and small fir trees on either side of the words. The white canvas stays as the background and reads as snow itself; the snowflakes over it are partly worked in beads. Eighteen floss colours over 25 m. The print in the snow is marked pale blue on white — fine work that only shows up close.

A 150×150 mm design rated simple — a good choice for a first winter piece. Finishing is your own call: a round hoop, a frame or moulding; none of them are in the kit. The firs and berries at the edges can be left until last: they sit well once the centre is finished. A QR code for the SAGA app comes with the chart, where finished areas are easy to mark.
