Salmon nigiriFree cross-stitch pattern

Salmon nigiri is a cross-stitch pattern of 25 × 17 stitches from the Sushi Picnic album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 6 DMC colours and 305 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 922 Copper Light covers the most cells, 116 stitches (38% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3685 Mauve Very Dark, with 9 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.8 × 1.2 in (4.5 × 3.1 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (15 × 14 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
