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

Sharlene,

Sorry about the delay.  I'll send you an email.  Please reply to it and attach one of your images.

You said you're using the peyote setting.  Please also let me know the colors you're selecting.

I'll let you know once I receive your image.

Thanks.

Terry

Hello and thanks for the rapid reply! (Melanie)?

So, if I'm pulling 2 plies of thread it's 2 ply, right, gottit!  
I was using 2 plies of thread doubled over, but thinking that was still 2 ply because I was only using 2 pieces.  That explains why my stitching was "tight" using 14 AIDA material!  
Consequently, with the next project I used 3 ply "not so tight" but I had a lot of problems pulling the needle off the thread inadvertently.  I must admit to using a knot when starting to stitch but that didn't seem to cause any unsightly lumps, is that a "NO - NO"?Undecided

What do you recommend using 14 AIDA and DMC cotton, 2 ply (and no knots)?
Which size needle should I be using? I only have one and I don't know what it is.

regards Dave




hi Terry,
Thanks for the trial. The way I see it, the program works very well. I am pleased that you have found a solution. Thank you.

Deeba,

Welcome!  Smile

The filet option does indeed work, however, it's a Premier feature which is why, unless you're subscribed, it won't work.  (The post above is from 2014, before the filet feature was available.)

To subscribe to Filet Crochet or any Premier feature, the subscription page is here:
/pages/pattern/subscribe.php

Filet crochet has an introductory price of $6.99 for a full year.

I'm thinking about a new small project. I have simply lost the interest for the big projects currently on the hook.. 

Anyhow.. I was thinking about making som coasters.. I am sick and tired of having to sand down my living room table (is made from oak, and it get's stains easily when people at putting their beverages down on it)..


I like these. They look like they are fun, and quick to make :p 
I just wan't other colors..
