About this pattern

A Mardi Gras jester hat in purple, green and gold with three points and three gold bells. A tall gold point stands straight up in the middle with a pale stripe down its center; a purple point curls over to the left and a green one to the right, each with a lighter highlight along its top. A round gold jingle bell with a dark slot hangs from the tip of every point. The band along the bottom is half green and half purple, swapped over from the points above. The shape mirrors left to right. Dark brown outline. Full crosses only. It is 53 by 39 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

53 stitches wide by 39 high: 1,009 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Medium Topaz 783, Very Dark Violet 550 and 4 more).
