TurtleFree cross-stitch pattern

Turtle is a cross-stitch pattern of 30 × 23 stitches from the Pets album of Stitch Puzzle. It uses 5 DMC colours and 453 whole cross stitches, with no backstitch and no part stitches.

DMC 702 Kelly Green covers the most cells, 138 stitches (30% of the design). The smallest amount is DMC 472 Avocado Grn U Lt, with 31 stitches.

On 14-count Aida it measures 2.1 × 1.6 in (5.4 × 4.2 cm) and fits a 4-inch hoop. Cut the fabric at least 7 × 6 in (16 × 15 cm), so you have 2 in to spare on every side.
