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!  Laughing

Donnajay,

Welcome!  Smile

The basic palette option is available in 5a.  It should default to it if you're choosing crochet.  Smile

Thank you so much for all the useful information. I was excited about doing a graphghan that I started the one for my son's father. It's so long I think 150 stitches is more than enough.

I could definitely use the graphics program. If I can get a better image my current WIP will be set aside. I have a feeling I'm going to love this site a little too much!! 😆😆

Lizzi,

Welcome!  Smile

Goodness, I can't imagine working off of an Excel spreadsheet!  Like you found, my counts and stitches would likewise be a mess.  Frown

I can make a suggestion that we add conversions from Excel spreadsheets to word charts to the freePatternWizard, but the final determination would have to be made by our programmer as to whether or not this is possible.  Smile

it doesn't cost the earth to be nice or to be kind and to share Smiley

Hello!  My name is Debi, and I am returning to cross stitch after many years.  First, I want to say that I love this site!  It is fantastic.  

I have a few questions that I hope members of the community can help me with.

1)  I just finished a project, and I am not quite sure how to finish and frame it.  Any suggestions, youtube vids, advice?

2)  I tried very hard to make sure that all my ends were well secured, but I'm very leary of them coming out at some time.  I've seen the product Needlework Finisher for small pieces, but mine is 10" x 11".  Is there any product to put on the back of something that big?

3)  I have a pattern that will be 10x11 in 14 count, but I was thinking using 11 count.  What size with the finished project be, and do you still use 2 strands?




Thank you so much!
