This is Mr. Bones. He’s pleased to meet you, and would like you to know that his hobbies include gardening. Whilst doing so he loves to contemplate the brevity of life. And though he’s given up on his daily skin routine, he remains looking dapper and chooses to wear a top hat daily.
This design measures 79 crosses in both width height. Stitched over 2 threads on 32 count linen (or over 1 on 16ct Aida) it would measure approximately 5” by 5” (12. 5 by 12. 5cm). It has a total of 1652 crosses.
This pattern can be stitched on any fabric, but a
nicely hand-dyed, slightly grotty looking fabric combined with some very dark variegated floss would look fantastic I think.
Leo & Roxy Yarn Co. has some wonderful colours of stranded floss that I can highly recommend. You can buy the Leo&Roxy floss at www.evertote.com
When working with 2 pulled strands of this floss you can stitch approximately 1800 crosses with one hank. This means 1 skein (or any other floss measuring about 8 to 10 yards) should be sufficient to complete this project.
