Bowl of cerealFree cross-stitch pattern

Bowl of cereal is a cross-stitch pattern of 25 × 28 stitches from the Breakfast album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 6 DMC colours and 544 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 3845 Turquoise Bright Med covers the most cells, 157 stitches (29% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 970 Pumpkin Light, with 47 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.8 × 2.0 in (4.5 × 5.1 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
