| 14 ct | 5.5 | 36.3 x 35.9 cm | 14.3 x 14.1 in | 52 x 52 cm |
| 16 ct | 6.3 | 31.8 x 31.4 cm | 12.5 x 12.4 in | 48 x 47 cm |

| 22 ct | 8.7 | 23.1 x 22.9 cm | 9.1 x 9.0 in | 39 x 39 cm |
* The fabric to buy allows 8 cm on each side for the hoop and the frame. The highlighted row is 14-count, the most common: the pattern has the same number of stitches on every fabric, what changes is how big each one is.
Suggested fabric: ivory.

What this one asks of you
All 39,600 stitches are full cross stitch: no half stitches and no backstitch to follow.
It has 10,381 lone stitches, 26.2 % of the total, and 5,458 of those have no neighbour of their color at all. The more there are, the more the needle jumps.
