This is the listing for the (now finished) mystery 'Divine Beasts' SAL by NeedleLot Designs, which ran from August 1 2025 through October 1 2025. Upon purchase, you'll receive instant access to all 3 parts of the completed SAL, as well as a detailed Field Guide to help you along the way. Your purchase also includes the optional Greek-style frame.

PRACTICAL INFORMATION

This SAL uses 20 DMC colours and requires only full stitches. Some metallic threads are used, but they can be swapped for regular cotton floss if preferred.

The fabric used for the model stitch is Zweigart's 32ct Belfast linen 705 'Pearl Grey'. Recommended fabric colors include white or off-white, tan, 'natural', light to medium grey, lilac, medium purple, light to medium blue, and turquoise. For the best results, choose a fabric that is similar in shade to or lighter than DMC 3838. 

The total SAL (with frame) is 162 stitches wide x 151 stitches high. On count 14 fabric, the design is 11-1/2 inches wide x 10-3/4 inches high, or 29.4cm wide x 27.4cm high. To calculate this pattern's size with any other count than 14, use an online cross stitch calculator. The SAL Field Guide also contains measurements for 16 and 18 count Aida. 

Pattern formats: color symbols, black-and-white symbols, and Pattern Keeper-compatible files.
