Prawn cocktailFree cross-stitch pattern

Prawn cocktail is a cross-stitch pattern of 28 × 27 stitches from the Seaside Supper album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 485 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 608 Burnt Orange Bright covers the most cells, 165 stitches (34% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 816 Garnet, with 28 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.0 × 1.9 in (5.1 × 4.9 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (16 × 16 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
