Ship bellFree cross-stitch pattern

Ship bell is a cross-stitch pattern of 18 × 26 stitches from the Pirate Cove album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 269 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 725 Topaz Med Lt covers the most cells, 79 stitches (29% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 3078 Golden Yellow Vy Lt, with 22 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.3 × 1.9 in (3.3 × 4.7 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 6 × 6 in (14 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
