DAYS OF DRAGONS is a series of five counted cross stitch designs, each
featuring a central circular panel with four small corner panels connected by
an intricate border. The colors of the dragons are taken from the sky and sun
at different times of the day, while the border colors link all five designs
together to form a series.
MIDNIGHT HUNTING is the second of five dragons in the Days of Dragons cross stitch
pattern series. Other patterns in this series are:
Midnight Hunting contains a large number of ¾ stitches, particularly
within the border. Please refer to our F.A.Q. for guidelines of how to treat these ¾ stitches.

November 2003 - Removed the recommended speciality floss DMC Art. 274 Antique
Silver as it is discontinued.
OPTION 1: Changed
the pattern to recommend using two strands of 105C Kreinik Metallic Cord (a
single ply cord) instead of taking 105C #4 Braid Kreinik Metallic and splitting
it. Two strands of this cord are blended into the border.
OPTION 2: Use a single
strand of Access Commodities Bijoux #442 Antique Silver.
The diamond symbol in the stitching chart is the same as the spade symbol on
the backstitch chart (in ears of dragon) - DMC 225.
May 2005 - Dot (.) symbol in the wing spines is not listed in the floss list. It is white.
