Corn On The Cob
There is something wonderfully cheerful about a plump, golden ear of corn, and this cross stitch pattern captures it beautifully. With its sunny yellow kernels, fresh green husks, and warm shading, it makes a lovely little celebration of nature at its most abundant and colourful.
This design suits stitchers of most experience levels and works equally well as a small framed piece for the kitchen or as a thoughtful handmade gift for anyone who loves food, gardening, or the easy warmth of summertime.

CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so use the DMC column for those brands.CXC and Sullivans skeins carry the DMC number, so the codes above cover them too.
These lengths include the thread lost to tails and travelling, so they are what to buy rather than what ends up on the fabric. A spare skein of your main colours is still worth having, because dye lots vary between batches and matching one part way through is the hard part.
HobbyTub also converts to Ariadna, CXC, Gamma, Luca-S and Sullivans. Pick your brand when you start the project.
