BeeFree cross-stitch pattern

Bee is a cross-stitch pattern of 29 × 27 stitches from the Orchard album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 3 DMC colours and 479 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 898 Coffee Brown Vy Dk covers the most cells, 242 stitches (51% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3823 Yellow Ultra Pale, with 100 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.1 × 1.9 in (5.3 × 4.9 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 7 × 6 in (16 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
