About this pattern

A red bowl of ramen seen from the side, with a pair of chopsticks lifting a hank of noodles straight up out of the middle of it. The noodles are pale yellow with two wavy gold strand lines. A round slice of white fish cake with a pink spiral sits in the bowl at the left and half a boiled egg with an orange yolk at the right. The bowl is red with one white band below the rim, a darker red shadow down its right side and a small foot; the chopsticks lie level, pale gold between dark lines. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 51 by 44 stitches and uses nine thread colors.

51 stitches wide by 44 high: 1,628 full cross stitches in 9 DMC colors (Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Winter White 3865 and 6 more).
