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

Aww thank you Smile it was only 4 colors (shades of gray), but I wanted to use Blue.

If one is doing a beaded picture from an actual photo, is it better to have more or fewer colors. I'm more interested in how the finished product looks rather tan time involved

Row 15: White (56), Light Grey (2), White (1), Light Grey (15), Light Purple (1), Light Grey (13), White (62)
Row 15 (return): Ch 1, White (62), Light Grey (13), Light Purple (1), Light Grey (15), White (1), Light Grey (2), White (56)
Row 16: White (43), Light Grey (6), Light Purple (15), Medium Gray (15), Light Purple (4), Medium Gray (1), Light Purple (11), Light Grey (5), White (50)
Row 16 (return): Ch 1, White (50), Light Grey (5), Light Purple (11), Medium Gray (1), Light Purple (4), Medium Gray (15), Light Purple (15), Light Grey (6), White (43)

This is part of a pattern I'm working on. I have never seen a pattern written this way before, and was wondering if I do the "return" rows. So basically do both row 15's and row 16's. This will double the length of my afghan, which I'm fine with, but the graph itself only shows 1 row of each, so I'm a little confused. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks 

Melanie,

I am so dissapointed over that C.. :/ I was nervous like hell.. Well - nothing I can do about it now.. :p

We are almost done packing.. I just need to pack a few things.. I have not started packing the boys room. I want them to have their toys for as long as possible.
However our family and friends have just said that they will not be here to help us with the move.. They are full of horrible excuses.. My boyfriends little brother even claims that we have never asked him to help.. Which of course is not true..
So I have spent my weekend trying to get some other people to help us.
It seems like I have succeded though.. 

The moving is horrible.. I hate moving - but as you say, the result is worth it. And I can't wait to get into our regular routines again.. Only 9 days left.. Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy Cheesy

I posted one FREE crochet book for Kindle for today...grab it before it's 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.)
