Stitch Puzzle

ColosseumFree cross-stitch pattern

Colosseum is a cross-stitch pattern of 29 × 22 stitches from the Around the World album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 447 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 976 Golden Brown Med covers the most cells, 136 stitches (30% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 580 Moss Green Dk, with 31 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.1 × 1.6 in (5.3 × 4.0 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 7 × 6 in (16 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
