Before you start

Nearly the whole chart is 310, so this is the one to stitch while you are watching something. Leave the four green eye cells until the silhouette is done — they are the only place a miscount will actually show.

Floss list

Every colour is real DMC. Tap one for its hex, RGB, Anchor match and nearest shades.

247 stitches in total. One skein of each colour is far more than enough for a pattern this size.

Finished size

The chart is a count, not a size — the fabric decides how big it comes out.
