About this pattern

A round stone wishing well seen from the front. Two brown wooden posts hold up a peaked red roof with darker red bands, and a brown roller runs between them. A wooden bucket with a pale gray band hangs on a rope from the roller, just above the dark mouth of the well. The rim is pale gray stone, and the wall below it is built of gray blocks in courses with dark joints. Tufts of green grass grow along its foot. The design mirrors exactly left to right. No lettering. Dark brown outline; the grass has none. Full crosses only. It is 37 by 47 stitches and uses eight thread colors.

37 stitches wide by 47 high: 1,205 full cross stitches in 8 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Light Steel Gray 318, Dark Pewter Gray 413 and 5 more).
