AnchorFree cross-stitch pattern

Anchor is a cross-stitch pattern of 26 × 31 stitches from the Seaside album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 3 DMC colours and 318 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 3808 Turquoise Ult Vy Dk covers the most cells, 142 stitches (45% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3078 Golden Yellow Vy Lt, with 47 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.9 × 2.2 in (4.7 × 5.6 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 7 in (15 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
