Suggested Materials:
Design: 334 x 358 Stitches
(approximately 30 8 yard skeins for 14 count, 2 strands)
Fabric Size (minimum):
14 ct. 27" x 29" (actual design: 23.9"w x 25.6"h)
16 ct. 24" x 26" (actual design: 20.9"w x 22.4"h)
18 ct. 22" x 23" (actual design: 18.6"w x 19.9"h)
20 ct. 20" x 21" (actual design: 16.7"w x 17.9"h)
(you can add more inches on each side if you prefer more fabric around the design area)
Fabric color:
Black or Navy is recommended (dark blue or very dark purple could also work.)
However, for some working with dark fabric is challenging, so white or light-colored fabric can be used (use the pattern chart for light fabric).
Thread color:
This pattern was designed with one color thread in mind, however, multiple color threads can be used, just keep in mind that if you are using black or dark blue fabric, you will want to choose white threads (if you want to use more than one color choose light color threads) and if you are using white fabric, you will want to choose black threads (if you want to use more than one color choose dark color threads).
