Sea turtleFree cross-stitch pattern

Sea turtle is a cross-stitch pattern of 39 × 33 stitches from the Under the Sea album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 761 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 703 Chartreuse covers the most cells, 276 stitches (36% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 779 Cocoa Dark, with 15 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.8 × 2.4 in (7.1 × 6.0 cm) and fits a 5-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 7 × 7 in (18 × 17 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
