ScorpionFree cross-stitch pattern

Scorpion is a cross-stitch pattern of 24 × 23 stitches from the Desert Trails album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 7 DMC colours and 251 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 154 Grape Very Dark covers the most cells, 47 stitches (19% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 973 Canary Bright, with 19 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.7 × 1.6 in (4.4 × 4.2 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.
