This studious snowy owl has foregone his usual nocturnal adventures in favor of an evening spent inside with his favorite books. Perhaps he will even pen some thoughts of his own. The hour is late, and the candle is burning low, but this owl won't sleep until dawn arrives. He has far more important matters to attend to.

The Literary Owl Cross Stitch Pattern is based on artwork by Lisa Parker. The design measures 525 stitches wide by 525 stitches high. The cross stitch pattern spans 50 pages, and is printed double-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 massive project that will provide you with many hours of enjoyment. It is not the best choice for beginners, but for the experienced stitcher, this will be an exciting challenge. Copyright - Heaven and Earth Designs, Inc.

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 37 ½" × 37 ½"
18-count 29 ¼" × 29 ¼"
25-count 21" × 21"
