Holland American Cruise Bird Cage Cross Stitch Chart

Download Categories: , ,

This is an interesting piece. This is the cover of the menu from the Holland America Cruiseline in 1987. The chart features a boy and a girl in traditional dress, just look at those wooden shoes and the bird in the cage. Can you imagine going on vacation with a bird?

The chart is 226x283 stitches and contains 75 colors. It has the background removed though, so it's not as many stitches as you think.

What's Included

These designs are charted for 18-count fabric using two strands of thread, but can be adapted to any fabric count. Adjustments will affect the finished size and thread requirements. Each chart includes a 30% thread excess estimate. A fabric calculator is provided in the footer of each page; inputting the stitch count will determine the necessary fabric size.

All charts include a black and white chart, color chart, symbol guide, and shopping list. Exceptions apply to designs with fewer than 15 colors, those using only one skein per color, or those explicitly stated as including only one chart type in the listing description.
