A mother giraffe and her calf side by side in a tall, narrow panel that plays on the warm tones of their coats and of the background. The upright format suits a narrow wall, the space beside a door or the area above a low cabinet.
The design is worked in counted cross stitch from the chart: on evenweave the stitches are usually made over two threads with two strands of cotton. The threads come ready sorted on the organiser, which makes it easy to find the right shade during a long project like this one. A frame is not included: measure up once the stitching is finished, allowing for the fabric margin around the design. A hoop or frame and a small pair of scissors are also useful.
