New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

I'm trying to make a graph of a picture I made, but it's showing some pixels in the wrong color. Is there a way to manually correct this? I cannot have mistakes like this in the pattern as I wish to sell them. I have included the used picture for testing if neccessary.
Sherry,
Woo hoo, glad your temps stayed above freezing!
No, we didn't get the moving done before the temps dropped like a stone.
It was freaking miserable,
miserable on top of miserable with an extra helping
of...miserable. And a side of miserable, too.
My hands are only better now because I've been using Udder Cream. I seriously couldn't even put on a pair of gloves without severe pain from my split and chapped hands. They still look awful, but they actually looked worse, so I'm glad there's a great treatment! It started healing within hours of using the stuff.
So now we're finally finished. The last day we pulled an all-nighter and got it done. It was also awful. It had snowed, temps were
below freezing, and the roads weren't great. My husband
wanted to give up. But we stayed with it and on the last
day, though I was not sad as I thought I'd be, we did both have a
teary moment looking at our empty living room. And then
we drove away, saying we don't want to go
back...ever...unless they said we had
to go back for some reason. But we don't and won't.
I had thought I'd be crying as we drove away, but after all of the crap we went through, I was actually not in any kind of crying mood!
It was nice to drive up to our desperately-in-need-of-rehab house, warts and all, and know we didn't have to go out immediately thereafter, nor did we have to do any more moving. We napped for a few hours, drove out and made a few important stops, then returned to...snow. Again. But we made it home in not a lot of snow and then this morning we plowed out our driveway and the neighbors'.
The front sidewalk and other
neighbors' sidewalks, too. I even hand shoveled the one
neighbor's steps, because hubby had plowed out his sidewalk and
front walkway as far as he could to the steps, so I just finished
the job.
LOL, is that some old saying about black eyed peas and ham - and being poor?
I can't say I'd want to
eat that, but I'd definitely try it...especially if the alternative
was to be poor!
I posted six FREE crochet patterns for Kindle for today...grab them before they're gone! (Note: you do not need to have an actual Kindle. If you have a smartphone, you can download a Kindle reader app for FREE...if all you have is a PC, you can download to your PC...and I believe there may also be a way now of completely bypassing any kind of reader app to read directly online - though please don't quote me on that, as I'm not sure. I find the PC reader to be quite decent for pattern content...since I don't own a Kindle, I can't say how well it works...but I would think a smaller screen would make patterns kind of difficult to read.)

Feeee,
You're very welcome!
Bbell,
Welcome!
I believe
there's a PDF that you can use for the purpose. I've alerted Terry
(Support) to your message, as he knows more about the PDF. It will
take him a few days to locate it and get back to you.
