ChrisMoose Berry

This fellow is joined by some of his woodland pals in a forest clearing for a bit of holiday celebration. I’ve stitched the moose and his friends with Simply Wool thread on the linen berry, which is worked on Petit Point Belfast linen for a snowy background. The silk berry sports a starry sky in the background.
Not just for Christmas - this berry will fit into your décor all winter long!

ChrisMoose Berry is sold as a “partner” chartpak, a format which includes instructions and charts for linen and silk berries.
