Light and darkness, energy and stillness, the masculine and feminine; In every case, the essence of the one is contained and reflected by the other. That is the meaning of the yin/yang symbol which forms the basis for this striking pair of dragons.
Since this pattern only calls for a single color of floss, and no specialty stitches, it is an excellent choice for beginners who want to tackle a large-scale project.
The Yin Yang Dragon Cross Stitch Pattern measures 196 stitches wide by 196 stitches high. The cross stitch pattern spans 11 pages, and is printed single-sided, on unbound sheets in a clear plastic bag for protection. There is a color picture of the completed chart on the front page. The pattern itself is graphed in black and white symbols, and a table showing the DMC colors you'll need is included.
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

| 14-count | 14" × 14" |
| 18-count | 11" × 11" |
