About this pattern

A round pink piggy bank standing side on and facing left, with a gold coin going into the slot on its back. Only the top of the coin shows, gold with a paler middle. The pig has a round deeper pink snout with two dark nostrils, a small dark eye, one pointed ear with a deeper pink lining, four short legs and a small curled tail. The belly and the two farther legs are shaded in the deeper pink. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 42 by 36 stitches and uses five thread colors.

42 stitches wide by 36 high: 898 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Light Salmon 761, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Medium Salmon 3712 and 2 more).
