About this pattern

A round night scene, 55 stitches across and stitched all over: a red and white banded lighthouse stands on a dark rock in the middle, its lit lantern throwing a pale yellow beam out to each side across a navy sky with fourteen single-stitch white stars. Blue-gray sea with a few lighter ripples fills the bottom of the circle. The left side mirrors the right. It uses eight thread colors.

55 stitches wide by 55 high: 2,377 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Very Dark Navy Blue 939, Pale Yellow 744, Medium Antique Blue 931 and 5 more).
