Our Christmas Stag (Deer) throw pillow is worked in wool needlepoint. The needlepoint is dense and even, with the slight stitch texture collectors look for.
Sits well with plaid throws, antlers, and a wood stove. Needlepoint reads fine and smooth, so it balances a chunkier hooked or woven piece.
Red and green tartan frames a cream center panel where a stag stands behind a wreath of laurel and berries with ribbons trailing at the base, and twisted red cord edges the pillow. The plaid border makes it an easy match for tartan throws and dark wood.

Needlepoint is patient work, and the stitch count is what gives the design its fine detail and the piece its firm, even surface. These are made in limited seasonal quantities. The wool is why this one goes back into the box every January instead of into the bin. A thoughtful gift for cabin owners, hunters, and mountain-house hosts.
