About this pattern

A chubby cartoon mushroom with a face, seen from the front. Its round pink cap has five white spots and a darker dusty-pink shade down the right side and along the lower edge. The stalk is cream, with two small dark eyes, a small smile and a pink cheek at each side, and a rounded foot. Dark brown outline; apart from the shading the left half mirrors the right. No words are drawn. Full crosses only. It is 27 by 27 stitches and uses five thread colors.

27 stitches wide by 27 high: 513 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Medium Salmon 3712, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Tawny 951 and 2 more).
