On Aida cloth this finishes fast — hoop it, or stitch it onto a project bag. The grid, materials estimate, and written row-by-row instructions below are all free; open the chart in the editor to resize it or swap the palette to yarns you already own.

Before you start
- Cross-stitch charts are worked from a symbol chart, not written rows.
- Start stitching from the center of the chart and fabric (chart center: column 30, row 30 from bottom-left).
- Bold gridlines fall every 10 squares.
- One chart square = one full cross stitch.
