Magnifying glassFree cross-stitch pattern

Magnifying glass is a cross-stitch pattern of 25 × 25 stitches from the Little Library album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 269 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 3608 Plum Very Light covers the most cells, 84 stitches (31% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 782 Topaz Dark, with 28 stitches.

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