Gone fishing - color version (small pattern)
COUNTED CROSS STITCH CHART BY  PERRETTE SAMOUILOFF

 

Look at these children having a happy time at the seaside. They are fishing for every possible kind of fish, some for lobster, others for shrimp.

You can stitch the pattern as a whole or pick elements such as in the stitched piece shown below.

This is the full color version of the pattern, in a lovely palette of blue, green and orange floss. Also available  is a very different interpretation of this pattern entirely stitched in blue monochrome.

Designer Perrette Samouiloff makes an expert use of stitches (in particular a number of three-quarter stitches (in combination with cross stitch and backstitch) to render the detail of each fish, and of the light playing on their scales.

This is the smaller version of a larger pattern with many more details you will love to stitch.
