About this pattern

A boxy ice cream truck seen from the side and facing right, with a giant ice cream cone standing on its roof. The truck is white above and pale pink below a thin red line, with a serving hatch of pale blue glass under a red and white striped awning, a cab window with a sloping front, a short nose, a white headlight and two gray wheels with lighter hubs. The cone on the roof is a pink scoop in a golden wafer, right above the hatch. No company name, livery or lettering is drawn. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 48 by 48 stitches and uses eight thread colors.

48 stitches wide by 48 high: 1,405 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Winter White 3865, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Salmon 761 and 5 more).
