Jumpin Jack Frost
CROSS STITCH PATTERN READY TO DOWNLOAD, DESIGNED BY Tempting Tangles
The beautiful quote is taken from a poem by British poet Humbert Wolfe, entitled "Autumn Resignation":
"Listen! The wind is rising and the air is wild with leaves".
Jack Frost is a character of time immemorial, impersonating autumn, responsible for frost marks on the windows but also for beautifully coloring the foliage.
This is reflected in this gorgeous colored pattern designed by Deborah A. Dick of Tempting Tangles. With a touch of humour the designer features Jack Frost "taking a break from raking the leaves and about to leap into a big pile of colorful autumn leaves".
The piece is cross stitched in hand-dyed Classic Colorworks cotton. DMC approximate correspondance also provided.
