About this pattern

A sampler sheet of six moustaches, two to a row, each a different style and none with a face drawn. Top row: a black handlebar with slim ends turned straight up, and a big gray one that droops at both ends. Middle row: a ginger one that runs across the lip and hangs straight down at each side, and a slim black one drawn out level to fine points. Bottom row: a gray one with broad ends swept upward, and a thick plain ginger one. All six are the same width, each mirrors left to right about its own middle, and each has a paler shine near the top. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only.

57 stitches wide by 41 high: 1,108 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Steel Gray 318, Copper 921 and 4 more).
