This counted cross stitch pattern by The Stitch Crypt perches a speckled snowy owl at the top of an arched window, with delicate white snowdrops and a trailing ribbon below. The tall, narrow shape and the soft whites against dark fabric give it a quiet, wintry elegance, and the window frame makes a striking focal point.

The design is available as a printed hardcopy pattern. If you want to get up and stitching quickly, save yourself the time of collecting all the supplies and purchase one of our bundle options which include the pattern along with fabric, thread, and needles.
