I tried coloring the squares, but did not know what to do with the half squares etc, how do you fill those?
As you can see putting crosses in squares is easier than coloring them
The yellow is actually for white or silver (if you prefer), the white color didn't show up well on the graph sheet.Blue is for gray (cant see gray color on graph either.
As I tried cross stitch many years ago when I was a kid, I cant exactly remember what would be an easy design or colour for a pattern,so just trying out a few.
