About this pattern

A whole basketball court seen from straight above. The floor is pale wood color inside a deep blue surround, and every line is white: the boundary, the center line with its circle, and at each end a three-point arc, a free-throw half circle and a painted blue lane. In each lane a short white backboard stands inside the end line with a small orange rim in front. No team name, number or logo is drawn. It mirrors exactly left to right and top to bottom. Stitched edge to edge, with a dark brown line round the outside. Full crosses only. It is 63 by 37 stitches and uses five thread colors.

63 stitches wide by 37 high: 2,331 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Pale Golden Brown 3827, Medium Navy Blue 311, Winter White 3865 and 2 more).
