This pattern is by Mystic Stitch and all their patterns are black and white and only use full stitches. If you need the pattern to be larger just put it in a copy machine and you can enlarge it. I make copies of all my patterns before I stitch them so I can mark all over them and still have a clean original pattern.

Each company that designs the patterns and kits sold here on this website by ECS has their own system and types of stitches that they use. Hope this helps.

I do the same as Syagel. I copy and enlarge all my patterns.

I like this pattern! Good luck.

This large pattern uses 87 DMC floss colors. The pattern booklet is 25 pages. Mystic Stitch uses 8.5" x 11" b&w charts.

Jlhewes this must be a very intricate pattern. It is so beautiful. My John Wayne large project is only 15 pages. This is going to be beautiful when you are done k9beaddesign.

syagel, you are a hoot - only 15 pages! I have projects like that in my stash. The largest is 16 pages but doubt that I'll ever get around to it. That is the only problem when ordering, you can't see the pattern. Some are really difficult to read and almost messy looking. Or the symbols are too similar. I enlarge my patterns as well. this way Ican use and abuse and mark all over. Afterwards, I toss it.

When you say you do beaded work, does that mean that you do the entire pattern in beads? That sounds like a gargantuan job. Good luck, it is a beautiful pattern.

You can bead anything that's all full crosses, but I think Robin will have to combine the colors a lot. I'm not a beader but 87 colors may be pushing it.

It was hard to find details on this design & 25 is an odd number. 5 x5 would make a square. 4 x 5 or 5 x 6 makes more sense. Oh, well.

Sorry for the many hits. Distracted.
