Stitch Puzzle

EaselFree cross-stitch pattern

Easel is a cross-stitch pattern of 20 × 28 stitches from the Artist's Desk album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 7 DMC colours and 361 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 976 Golden Brown Med covers the most cells, 78 stitches (22% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 154 Grape Very Dark, with 22 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.4 × 2.0 in (3.6 × 5.1 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (14 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
