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!

Robin,
After having my coffee and getting my brain going, I realizd it could just as easily be a reverse stitch. How did you make it? Did you insert your hook under the back bar of your stitch? That would be a trs, tunisian reverse stitch.
Welcome!
You've done nothing wrong; the artwork button isn't currently available.
Silvertiger,
That's outstanding how you went from loom knitting to hand knitting in such a short time! Do you have a
preference? Is one easier than the other, or are both the
same to you now?
I did some loom knitting many years ago. I had a loom that made Barbie dresses. LOL, really, all it did was turn out tubes, but it was nice to have a way to make doll dresses! Anyway, I finally learned knitting with needles some years after that. Now I can't get back into the looming!
Ha ha, maybe it's time to make
some doll dresses. 
Sherry,
Yes...Walmart had an extensive craft department, until they decided they didn't need half of what they were selling and started messing with it. The more they messed with it, the worse they got. They scaled down the sewing until you could only get the most basic items, such as needles and a few threads - but no fabric at all. Then they started in with the novelty yarns. Then they discontinued a lot of the basic yarns. Then they re-added sewing...at the expense of more basic yarns. Then the yarns started getting scaled down more. Not the novelty yarns, though...again, the basics.
So now there are only a handful of yarn basics.
The small yarn shops are a huge loss, too. We had one...and it's
gone. They couldn't make it. And it was the
only game in town. I love shopping at mom
& pop stores like our (former) yarn store, doing the
tiniest bit I could back then to keep them going.

Hi, All.I'm at the tail end of testing about 27 fixes but
thought I'd start turning on a few additions/corrections.This
version now shows the yarn manufacturer name on the word chart
cover sheets.Before this it always showed "Palette used:
Stitchboard Word Chart" but now shows the manufacturer.I hope to
finish the testing on the next group of updates very
soon.Terry
