This is a cross stitch pattern and not a kit. You have to purchase all of the floss and fabric. The model is stitched on 28ct. white evenweave over 1 thread. The finished size is 15 5/8 inches x 15 5/8 inches. The stitch count is 440 stitches x 440 stitches. The floss is Vicky Clayton silk thread.

This has only full stitches and 2 colors. You can use DMC or Anchor floss. On 28-ct fabric "over-one" thread stitching would be very tricky as to tension & keeping the floss from slipping behind the fabric thread. suggest 18-ct Aida, 22-ct Hardanger, or 24-ct Congress. Divide 440 by these counts to get the diameters.

I have done quite a few patterns on 25 count fabric. I use a magnifying glass to see the pattern clearly. The floss slipping behind a stitch is very rare and easy to repair. I love the look of the finished embroidery. It looks like a tapestry and impresses everyone.
