It feels a little weird to call this cross stitch when there aren’t actually any crossed stitches in it, but I don’t know what else you would call this sweet heart. I guess maybe it’s technically backstitch?
It’s made with uncrossed stitches, which gives it a fun, drawn look.
The pattern uses one color (it would be pretty in variegated thread, too) and is 28 by 30 stitches, or about 2 by 2.25 inches on 14-count fabric. Perfect to fit in a 3-inch hoop!
