About this pattern

A glass salt shaker and a taller wooden pepper mill standing side by side. The shaker has a domed gray steel cap with five holes over a straight glass body in light blue, part filled with white salt, with darker shading down its right side and along its foot. The mill is turned brown wood with a round head, a narrow neck, a waist and a flared foot, a lighter stripe of shine down its left side, dark grooves under the head and near the foot, and a gray steel knob on top. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 30 by 38 stitches and uses eight thread colors.

30 stitches wide by 38 high: 816 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Very Dark Hazelnut Brown 869, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Winter White 3865 and 5 more).
