The wildlife color palette is like a walk through an autumn forest: warm and rich. The colors blend into one another, making it great for a needle painting or an autumn-themed project. Of course, it would make an amazing stitched red fox too!

DMC and Anchor are the most commonly used brands of stranded cotton. They both have a wide variety of colors and are made of good-quality stranded cotton.

The Red Fox Close-Up Color Palette uses the following shades of thread: Mahogany Medium, Red Copper Dark, Tan Light, Tan Ultra Very Light, Beige Brown Medium, Beige Brown Dark.
