About this design
A set of camping icons: tent, mug, compass, mountains and fire. Work from the sheet: the 14 × 12.5 cm design is outlined first, then filled, and the step numbers on the page follow that order.
Because there is no video, the useful habit here is to read the whole key before you thread a needle — 16 steps over 7 stitches, and the strand counts decide how flat the fill sits.
Take it in stages.
16 steps, 7 stitches, 16 colours.

Common questions
Before you download it.
Is there a video for this design?
No. Some patterns in the library have a full step-by-step video; this one does not. The sheet prints the stitch order and the strand counts, and the design is 14 × 12.5 cm — small enough to work from the paper.
How do I get the lines onto the fabric?
Print at 100%, tape the sheet to a window and trace with a water-soluble pen. On mid-weight cotton the lines come through cleanly without a light box.
Can I use colours other than the DMC list?
Yes. The list is a starting point — the design reads by shape, so any palette of 16 tones works. Keep one dark value for the outline and you are safe.
