About this pattern

A tall ice cream cone seen straight on: three round scoops stacked on a pointed wafer cone, chocolate on top, pale yellow vanilla in the middle and pink strawberry at the bottom, each with a small white shine. The strawberry scoop sits in the mouth of the cone and one drip of it runs down the middle of the wafer, which has a criss-cross grid in a darker gold. A dark brown outline runs round every part. Full crosses only. It is 17 by 56 stitches and uses seven thread colors.

17 stitches wide by 56 high: 634 full cross stitches in 7 DMC colors (Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938, Medium Salmon 3712, Pale Yellow 744 and 4 more).
