CapybaraFree cross-stitch pattern

Capybara is a cross-stitch pattern of 24 × 21 stitches from the Pocket Zoo album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 337 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 976 Golden Brown Med covers the most cells, 198 stitches (59% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 550 Violet Very Dark, with 6 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.7 × 1.5 in (4.4 × 3.8 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 14 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
