There are 12 sizes included, from 3"–10" (all approximate). You get every size in the download, so you can stitch the same design on a pocket or across a back.

25,608 stitches at the 7" size and 7 thread colours. There are 9 colour changes in the stitch order, so that is how many times you will swap thread.

At the largest stitched size this design uses roughly 472 ft top thread · 178 ft bobbin. Smaller sizes use proportionally less. Treat it as a guide for topping up a colour before you start, not an exact figure.

This is a medium design at roughly 938 stitches per square inch. Cut-away or a firm tear-away stabiliser is the safe choice. Comfortable on most wovens and stable knits.
