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!

Thank you so much for such a genuine reply, I do appreciate it.
I've shown my local textile shop owner my first pattern I've made and she thinks it's great so that's a very good start. She also said that as the fabric comes in inches her local customers can speak and think in inches too so the cm issue is removed for me now. As a quilter I can think in inches too so I know what she means. (In
Australia we moved from the old imperial measurements, including inches, in the 1960's when we went metric.)
I've bought the Premium package for the Private Labelling and am fairly happy with it. I would like to be able to include my # hashtag in the footer but couldn't customise it.
With the Notes section I've been able to add some useful information but I think I've added so much that the Company name top row has disappeared. As I'm only using 20 thread colours there is room at the bottom of the front page for all the fields plus my Notes. Maybe that's an easy fix? But often what seems easy with technical projects takes three times as long!
I certainly know what you're talking about with a long to do list, mine is always growing and there's not enough time to get through it all.
Part of the solution I'm working with now is a Useful Information Guide I've made up to go with the pattern that has Tools and Notions, Number of Skeins Required for the Project (I worked up a table with the variables of fabric count, stitch count ranges and threads (1, 2, 3) - based on that handy skein estimator) and a Needle Size Chart as my textile shop lady said customers just want to come in with a shopping checklist. At this stage it is a separate PDF but hopefully I'll find a way to include it in the Pattern PDF.
Lots of learning to do and I'm really enjoying this project. Thank you for making such a carefully thought through tool that is affordable to experiment with.
I am over the moon! Finally found a good way of converting a picture into a pattern. I see lot of possibilities
Hi,
If you're using the "Choose my own colors" option, there was a bug that showed up in certain configurations.
I corrected this in a version that should be ready very soon. I'm doing final testing. It has about 30 internal changes, fixes, and a few additions.

Melanie,
My thought exactly
I just got some feedback from my MIL - she loves them.. So I had to try them out for myself..
So I put on my usual makeup, waited a couple of hours, and then took it off.. I only needed ONE pad for my entire eye makeup.. I usually use 4 or 5 of the cottong thingies you buy in supermarkets..
I am very surprised by this.. They are genious..
SO now i'll start making some more.. A lot more..
And I was thinking og making some slightly bigger, for those who uses makeup in their entire face.. Maybe it's easier if they are bigger
Hugs
Melanie,
I'm not sure about the mixing of the colors.. Not on this specific project.. I'll have to see about that..

It's something like this I wanna make..
Maybe I'll try..
Never make anything in white here either.. o.O Oh the horror when it gets dirty..
White carpeting.. Well.. Some people have enough money.. Just think about the day when you spill coffee on it.. Or worse.. Red wine.. o.O Shriek..
Hugs
