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 would love to have the mosaic tile pattern option if you decide to make it available.😎
Than you for the warm welcome,
Yes, it's crochet and it's a word chart. You're good ☺!
Thanks for the clarification also.

Lina,
You're so very welcome!
Feel free to share pictures of your
work here, if you'd like...we love to drool!
Welcome!
First, I'm
wondering if you're measuring your pattern according to the width
of the pages on which it's printed to get the dimensions? This is
actually not the measurement you're looking for.
What you're looking for is your gauge, based on the size
hook, the stitch (filet blocks in this case), the fiber you're
using and, well, you! No two people crochet exactly the same,
so what you need to do is use the hook you've chosen and the fiber
and then crochet at least a 4 inch x 4 inch swatch in filet, using
both empty and full blocks. When you know your gauge, e.g., how
many blocks per inch, you'll then know how many blocks in
"stitches" and "rows" you'll need for the measurements of your
windows. (If you find you're not able to get the result you want -
say, your blocks are a bit too large, you can go down one hook size
and swatch again.)
This is the measurement
you'll need to know how many blocks you'll need for your particular
windows. Hope that helps!
That's a beautiful image and will make stunning curtains
in filet!

Secoya,
As long as you're
consistently stitching the top slants the same way, no worries!
Just make sure your right hand knows
that it needs to do things, um, left-handed. LOL.
