About this pattern

A wooden rolling pin lying level, with three red hearts in a row on its barrel. The barrel is pale golden wood with a lighter streak along its upper side and a darker band of shade along its lower side; at each end is a slim handle with a thin neck and a rounded grip. The hearts are solid red, evenly spaced, the middle one on the middle of the pin. The whole pin mirrors left to right. Dark brown outline round the pin; the hearts have none. Full crosses only. It is 63 by 17 stitches and uses five thread colors.

63 stitches wide by 17 high: 795 full cross stitches in 5 DMC colors (Pale Golden Brown 3827, Red 321, Ultra Dark Coffee Brown 938 and 2 more).
