This counted cross stitch pattern by Counting Puddles dresses a fluffy white sheep in a Santa hat and a long striped scarf, set against a soft gray sky with falling snowflakes and a snowy patch of ground. It's a cheerful little holiday piece that's sized just right for an ornament or a small hoop, with French knots and star stitches adding texture to the fleece and snow.
