AxolotlFree cross-stitch pattern

Axolotl is a cross-stitch pattern of 30 × 20 stitches from the Terrarium Friends album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 375 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 963 Dusty Rose Ult Vy Lt covers the most cells, 127 stitches (34% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3802 Antique Mauve Vy Dk, with 28 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.1 × 1.4 in (5.4 × 3.6 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 7 × 6 in (16 × 14 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
