Stitch Puzzle

PearFree cross-stitch pattern

Pear is a cross-stitch pattern of 18 × 24 stitches from the Fruit Market album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 3 DMC colours and 252 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 973 Canary Bright covers the most cells, 128 stitches (51% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 703 Chartreuse, with 58 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.3 × 1.7 in (3.3 × 4.4 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (14 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
