| 14 ct | 5.5 | 8.2 x 6.9 cm | 3.2 x 2.7 in | 24 x 23 cm |
| 16 ct | 6.3 | 7.1 x 6.0 cm | 2.8 x 2.4 in | 23 x 22 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: light yellow.

| DMC 989 | 9 | 22.0 % | 1 |
| 3 threads | 41 | 100 % | 3 skeins |
* 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.
