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 am actually in the process of writing a novel that is very loosely based on Alice in Wonderland. It's going to be a trilogy.
I am just about done with a few of my projects, but I may post in the WIP section so you all can predrool....lol
I just got my first portrait blanket pattern and noticed it doesnt say hook size or stitch. So i was wondering if the hook sized really mattered, and if they are all written in SC or HDC or does it depend on what you are doing?
Welcome!
I haven't been to Oregon in years, but I remember how gorgeous it is...those beautiful trees! What a lovely state you live in...jealous!
As for graphghans, if you've never made one before, my suggestion would be to start with a smaller one before jumping into a large project. I know how hard it is to start small when you're really itching to do something on a grander scale, but only by starting small can you know what you'll be getting into with a larger project. I always tell people it's like when I tried to bead crochet...I couldn't do it. It was so uncomfortable having the beads on the thread and trying to work with them. Once I changed to pony beads and yarn, it was a breeze! I learned how it all works and how to hold the thread with the beads, and it wasn't difficult on the large scale beads, so I knew I was ready to crochet with much smaller beads.
Thank you very much for the upgrade and the advice on the color palette. I can't believe I didn't know about this site before.

Khark,
You're so welcome! I'm so
sorry we don't have a better answer...it's very discouraging when
people create beautiful patterns and there's no way of using them.
