Of all the gods in the Norse pantheon, none can compare with Thor. His war hammer, Mjolnir, was a mighty weapon that could be wielded by his hand alone. This cross stitch pattern, incorporating the Thor's hammer motif, also features a ring of viking runes as its border. For those with a Norse heritage, nothing could be a more fitting cross stitch project .
The Thor's Shield Cross Stitch Pattern measures 107 stitches wide by 106 stitches high. The cross stitch pattern spans 6 pages, and is printed single-sided, on unbound sheets in a clear plastic bag for protection. There is a color picture of the completed chart on the front page. The pattern itself is graphed in black and white symbols, and a table showing the DMC colors you'll need is included.
This is a pattern for counted cross stitch. It is not a complete kit. You will need to supply your own fabric and floss. We are not able to offer digital downloads of our patterns at this time.
How much fabric do I need?
To calculate the amount of fabric you will need for your project, divide the number of stitches by the stitch count of the fabric you wish to use. The higher the count of your fabric, the smaller your piece will be. Some examples appear below. Remember to leave several additional inches as a border on each side, to facilitate framing your project when it is finished.
Fabric count | Approximate size of stitched area |
---|
14-count | 7 3/4" × 7 1/2" |
18-count | 6" × 6" |
25-count | 4 1/4" × 4 1/4" |
