About this pattern

A round mirror ball, a disco ball, hanging on a thin dark cord with four gold four-point sparkles around it, two large and two small. The ball is covered in small square mirror tiles in straight rows with dark gray joints between them: white tiles at the upper left where the light falls, pale and mid gray tiles toward the lower right, five light blue tiles among them and one white tile low on the right. The tiles get narrower toward the rim. Dark brown outline round the ball; the sparkles have none and stand apart on the fabric. A piece for a New Year's Eve card or any party.

52 stitches wide by 43 high: 964 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Dark Pewter Gray 413, Light Steel Gray 318, Medium Topaz 783 and 4 more).
