PDF file with chart is available here.

Size:  approximately  8" X 8 ½"

Materials:  One skein of worsted weight cotton in a solid color. (Approximately 88 – 100 yards.)  The cloth pictured was done in Peaches & Crème in Shrimp.

Needles:  U.S. Size 6/4.0mm or 5/3.75mm  Because this is a “picture” cloth, you want your fabric to be fairly dense so the design will pop out.  If you are a loose knitter, then you might want to drop down a needle size.

Gauge:  4.5 sts. per inch, not critical. 

Abbreviations:
k = knit
p = purl
sts. = stitches
