The Ice Cream is worked on 14-count canvas in 6 colors in continental stitch. The optional stick area is worked in 2 colors.

Finished Size: Approximately 3x5 inches (ice cream area only)

Mesh Size: 14-count

Size of Canvas Needed: 6 x 8 inches for ice cream only, 6 x 10 inches for full chart

DMC Tapestry Wool: 1 skein each Blanc (white), light gray, yellow, deep pink, medium pink, light lilac, medium lilac, dark lilac, black, medium green, light tan and flesh tone. The optional stick requires 1 skein each of a light and dark tan of your choice.

If you are making the project to place on an actual wooden stick as in the sample, stitch the ice cream area only. After completing the stitching, refer to the finishing directions (coming soon) to transform your finished canvas into a 3-dimensional ice cream that you can display in a bucket or use as an ornament.

If you wish to stitch this as a rectangular canvas, stitch the stick in the two optional shades of tan in Continental Stitch, and the background area in Basketweave Stitch, starting at the upper right corner of the canvas.
