PuffinFree cross-stitch pattern

Puffin is a cross-stitch pattern of 22 × 26 stitches from the Tropical Wings album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 6 DMC colours and 332 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 712 Cream covers the most cells, 129 stitches (39% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 550 Violet Very Dark, with 9 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.6 × 1.9 in (4.0 × 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.
