Using one strand of Color E, work the vertical multiple cross in the center of this diamond. The diamond is 12 x12 threads and the multiple cross is 10 threads high, so point 1 is one thread up from the bottom of the diamond.

The crescent is worked in Colors B, C, and D:

• Using three strands of Color B, work stitches 1 - 2 and 3 - 4.
• Using three strands of Color D, work stitches 5 - 6 and 7 - 8.
• Using three strands of Color C, work stitches 9 - 10 and 11 - 12.

Using one strand of Color E, outline the diamond with four diagonal gobelin stitches.
