The pattern combines cross stitch, half stitch, and backstitch for a simple but characterful result.

Project Notes
You stitch from the included color chart, placing each stitch by counting the fabric threads. The chart clearly indicates backstitch lines and knot placement. The Russian text covers general stitching guidance, but the visual chart is intuitive enough without translation. Finished, this mini cross stitch fits beautifully in a small frame for a desk, bookshelf, or nursery wall — a thoughtful gift for animal lovers, beginner stitchers, or anyone who enjoys small handmade projects.
