ThimbleFree cross-stitch pattern

Thimble is a cross-stitch pattern of 20 × 22 stitches from the Sewing Basket album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 2 DMC colours and 332 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 318 Steel Gray Lt covers the most cells, 226 stitches (68% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 311 Wedgewood Ult VyDk, with 106 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 1.4 × 1.6 in (3.6 × 4.0 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.
