About this pattern

A pair of aviator sunglasses seen straight on: a thin gold wire frame round two teardrop lenses, a straight brow bar level with the top of the rims, a second bridge three rows below it and a short temple at each outer side. The green lenses are shaded in three bands, very dark at the top and lighter at the bottom, with a slanted white glint high on the left of each. There is no outline: the gold wire is the line. Full crosses only. It is 45 by 15 stitches and uses five thread colors.

45 stitches wide by 15 high: 434 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Very Dark Blue Green 500, Medium Topaz 783, Dark Blue Green 501 and 2 more).
