Seasonal patterns, starting with winter

There's a new Seasonal section in the menu, and its first collection is winter: 31 patterns from the site's tools, in snow, starlight and evergreen. They're grouped as snowmen, snowflakes and ice, candles and lanterns, wreaths, stars and woodland.

Winter colors on familiar patterns

Most are patterns from the library in winter colors: a Koch snowflake on navy, a Snowball quilt in ice blue, a maze whose walls hide “LET IT SNOW”, an ice-ray lattice, buffalo check and a red and green tartan. Every sample opens with its settings, so you can start from it and make it your own.

Drawn for winter

Eight cross-stitch charts were drawn for the collection: a snowman in a top hat, a pair of mittens, a candle in holly, a lantern in the snow, a band of icicles, a north star, a cardinal on a snowy branch and an eight-point Selbu star. Each opens in the cross-stitch builder, where you can change its count, colors and finish, then print the chart.
