FishFree cross-stitch pattern
Fish is a cross-stitch pattern of 30 × 25 stitches from the Ocean album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 3 DMC colours and 486 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.1 × 1.8 in (5.4 × 4.5 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.
