Beach ballFree cross-stitch pattern
Beach ball is a cross-stitch pattern of 28 × 28 stitches from the Seaside album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 620 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.
DMC B5200 Snow White covers the most cells, 170 stitches (27% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 817 Coral Red Very Dark, with 70 stitches.
On 14-count Aida it measures 2.0 × 2.0 in (5.1 × 5.1 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (16 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
