One of the first patterns we created was the one she’s picked, Keeping Warm, a lovely pastel-shaded picture of a bear in winter, keep warming with his many woolen scarves. Nikki is also an experienced knitter so this one really hit the spot. You can download this cross-stitch pattern PDF here – like all our patterns it’s free, and works with Pattern Keeper app.
