| 22 ct | 8.7 | 23.1 x 27.5 cm | 9.1 x 10.8 in | 39 x 43 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.

* The skeins are a guide: they assume about 1,700 stitches per skein with two strands on 14-count, rounded up. Finer thread goes further, doubled thread goes less far.
What this one asks of you
All 47,600 stitches are full cross stitch: no half stitches and no backstitch to follow.
It has 9,470 lone stitches, 19.9 % of the total, and 5,316 of those have no neighbour of their color at all. The more there are, the more the needle jumps.
