About this pattern

A pink awareness ribbon on a dark slate blue panel that is stitched all over. The ribbon makes a tall loop that comes to a point at the top, its two strands cross just below the loop and fall as two straight tails that splay out to the left and right. A small white heart sits between the tails near the bottom. The colors are flat, with no outline and no shading, and where the strands cross the ribbon is one solid shape with no over and under shown. The left side mirrors the right. Full crosses only. It is 31 by 52 stitches and uses three thread colors.

31 stitches wide by 52 high: 1,612 full cross stitches in 3 DMC colors (Very Dark Antique Blue 3750, Medium Salmon 3712, Winter White 3865).
