KoalaFree cross-stitch pattern

Koala is a cross-stitch pattern of 25 × 26 stitches from the Pocket Zoo album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 7 DMC colours and 441 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 318 Steel Gray Lt covers the most cells, 170 stitches (39% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 561 Celadon Green VD, with 14 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.8 × 1.9 in (4.5 × 4.7 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
