About this pattern

A pair of teal running shoes set side by side, toes away from you, seen from straight above. Each shoe has a white toe bumper, a darker teal tongue crossed by five white lace bars, a pale gray insole showing in the foot opening near the heel, and a small red pull tab at the back. The shoes swell at the ball of the foot and narrow at the arch. Dark brown outline round each shoe and each foot opening. The right shoe mirrors the left exactly. No logo or lettering. Full crosses only. It is 38 by 40 stitches and uses six thread colors.

38 stitches wide by 40 high: 1,102 full cross stitches in 6 DMC colors (Dark Turquoise 3810, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Winter White 3865 and 3 more).
