Rooster & Hen Cross Stitch Pattern - Black & Silver Barnyard Duo - PDF Download

This striking barnyard pair adds a bold, elegant touch to any farmhouse-style cross stitch collection. A sleek black-and-charcoal rooster with iridescent white highlights stands beside a soft silver-grey speckled hen, both crowned with vivid red combs and grounded in a patch of green grass. The monochrome feather patterning gives the birds a sophisticated, almost photographic quality, making this pair stand out from more traditional warm-toned rooster designs — perfect for a modern farmhouse or black-and-white themed kitchen.
