Can anyone recommend a fairly simple counted cross stitch please?

I've only ever done one cross stitch, which was a lovely, but simple, blue elephant for DS when he was born.

I was hoping to do a different animal from the same series for impending DC2, but I can't find them anymore. And sadly the person who recommended them to me on here has had all her posts deleted.

Would anyone be able to point me in the right direction please? I'm not very good a judging how difficult they might be.

I've only found things that look insanely difficult, or the school-style huge-hole ones.

Thanks so much!

Was it This One?

If you scroll down there seem to be more animals in the series.

Not that one, but they look sweet too. I'll have a look on that site.

Thanks very much!

I think I'm going to try this chap

And I also quite fancy doing this for DS1 and this for DC2 (who is also a DS).

I'm so easily suckered by crafty things blush grin

They are lovely!

I used to do lots of cross stitch before I discovered MN blush
