    I need new instructions for mind. My paper where it was folded is frail and I can not read it. Plus I can not find peacock thread any where.

    You can purchase the chart at patternsonline.com. It will probably cost $7-8; it is the updated computerized version. The symbols might be somewhat different from the hand drawn chart.

    Also, if you’re on Facebook, you can join the Teresa Wentzler Cross Stitch SAL; several people in that group are working on Peacock Tapestry.

    I'm stuck on the tree because the directions say when "sideways triangle" appears beside one color or two colors bracketed together, stitch bottom half cross with colors listed and stitch top half cross using one strand 453 ? Thanks for mentioning the FB
    group too - I looked them up.

    I haven’t stitched this design myself, and I don’t own the chart. Have you asked anyone in the Facebook group for help? It sounds as though you stitch just the bottom leg with the blended threads but use only a single strand of 453; other than that,
    I haven’t a clue.

    I’ve looked longingly at the chart, but with some eye issues and my age taken into consideration, I doubt stitching it will happen.
