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!

Hi, Everyone,
Since we upgraded the site to a secure server (HTTPS:) back in April, some users have been experiencing periodic problems getting their pdf charts on the screen.
This problem shows up both in IOS and Android devices.
In testing I found that there's no single solution. Some devices work no matter what (like my iPhone). Other require you change the pdf format setting in section 7 of the freePatternWizard.
For those IOS device users having pdf viewing problems, I just re-enabled a "screen" option in section 7 that helps.
The problem is that there's no common solution to the pdf viewing problem. Users with an iPad using a certain version of IOS and browser might have no problem. Those with a slightly different version of browser on the same device might have a problem. Some with a different IOS version with the same browser version might or might not have a problem. Again, they come and go depending on the combination of device, operating system version, and broswer version.
SO, if you have a problem getting a pdf chart (like all you see is a bunch of garbage text on the screen or get a download failed message), try another setting in section 7. There are currently 3 options — Download pattern, Show /pdf pattern on screen, and Email pattern to myself. If you have a problem with one setting, try another.
Some versions of operating systems and browser versions are more sensitive to downloading pdf files from a secure server.
I'll eventually be adding a 4th option that should offer a universal fix but for now most users should find an option that works by trying the different pdf settings in section 7.

Okay thank you and sorry for all the requests.
Melanie,
I just signed up for a full year of studies again...
Signed up for these subjects:
Math, History, Religion, Chemestry, Biology, Geography, Physics, Psychology.. o.O
I have to study history over the internet, it will only take me 6 months..
This is deffinitly not the way I wanted to do it, but it seems like there is no way around it..
I start on tuesday next week, so it seems I have a bit of summer vacation after all..
No time for my yarn though..
I posted two* FREE soap making books 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.)

* there are two listings for today, but one is a brand new three-book bundle!

Hello everyone :-)
My name is
Conny. I`m born in November 1961. I live in Germany in the
Westerwald with my husband and my dog. It seems I´m the
only german here :-)
I learnd english at
school, many years ago, but it does`nt work very good. I apologize
for that. I used GoogleTranslater but I dont know if that makes it
much better than me *g
I love beading and my
favorite is peyote. And so I`ll be here to look and learn, and get
inspiration.
I just wanted to introduce me,
even if I can not vote so on the basis of language.
Greetings, and have an nice day
