As Irish as can be. The green and gold Celtic knots frame a line from one of the best-known Gaelic blessings. This makes a wonderful companion piece to the matching
"Roads Rise to Meet You" design.
Only three colors of floss are needed to stitch this lovely Irish blessing. The design measures 207 stitches wide by 115 stitches high. The front page of the pattern has a color photo of the finished design. The chart is graphed in black and white symbols. A table showing the DMC colors you'll need is included. This pattern calls for some backstitching and quarter stitches. The instructions are printed on 5 loose sheets, in a resealable cellophane envelope for protection.
This is a pattern for counted cross stitch. It is not a complete kit. You will need to supply your own fabric and floss. We are not able to offer digital downloads of our patterns at this time.
How much fabric do I need?
To calculate the amount of fabric you will need for your project, divide the number of stitches by the stitch count of the fabric you wish to use. The higher the count of your fabric, the smaller your piece will be. Some examples appear below. Remember to leave several additional inches as a border on each side, to facilitate framing your project when it is finished.
| Fabric count | Approximate size
of stitched area |
|---|
| 14-count | 14 3/4" × 8 1/4" |
| 18-count | 11 1/2" × 6 1/2" |
| 25-count | 8 1/4" × 4 1/2" |
