A line-up of reindeer in striped scarves, with holly and baubles hanging from their antlers. The snowy background is already printed on the fabric, so there is no sky to fill in and you stitch only the characters. Alongside the cross stitch you will use back stitch for the outlines and French knots, while the beads and sequins are added at the end for sparkle.
The lana threads are brushed up with the piece of Velcro supplied to give the tails and coats their fluffy texture. A hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors are handy while you work; the picture frame is not included, and framing is the usual finish for a long Christmas panel like this.
