The redpoll hangs inverted while five catkins fall around it. Download this winter embroidery pattern for the upward tail, four curled birch leaves and thin frost marks on the crossing silver branches.
Feathers, contours and small details
The guide maps 12 working regions with local stitch direction, strand count and DMC colour recipes. Use the region key and recommended sequence to follow the overlaps and changes in shading. Mapped techniques include divided turning long-and-short, divided short satin, fine split.
Is the redpoll upside down by mistake?
The hanging pose is deliberate. Its upward tail and grip belong to the composition, with the unequal catkins falling around it in the opposite direction.
Bird and setting
Redpoll Beneath the Birch Snow Tassel makes a small hanging pose the centre of the scene. Keep both upward grips on the twig, follow the full tail toward its tip, and work each of the five catkins as a separate form.
