CupcakeFree cross-stitch pattern

Cupcake is a cross-stitch pattern of 16 × 18 stitches from the Picnic album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 4 DMC colours and 175 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 400 Mahogany Dark covers the most cells, 75 stitches (43% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3743 Antique Violet Vy Lt, with 21 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.1 × 1.3 in (2.9 × 3.3 cm) and fits a 3-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (14 × 14 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
