Stitch Puzzle

PenguinFree cross-stitch pattern

Penguin is a cross-stitch pattern of 30 × 31 stitches from the Adventure album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 684 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 3823 Yellow Ultra Pale covers the most cells, 294 stitches (43% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 563 Jade Light, with 5 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.1 × 2.2 in (5.4 × 5.6 cm) and fits a 5-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 7 × 7 in (16 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
