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!

O...M...G, love it 💖💖💖, job well done
Melanie,
My washer has a wool program.. It works like a charm
I made a tent for my self.. You know, a sweater sooo big that you could probably live in it :p
It's very nice, unfortunately I got stuck in a door handle and ripped up one of the sleves
Anyhow.. That was made from highlandwool, non superwash.. I used to wash it in the washer on my wool program.. It's as pretty (it's butt ugly) as when I made it.. :p
I only made the mistake of washing a sweater on a non wool program ONCE.. My mother made these Oslo Anoraks for the kids.. She told me that it was super wash, so I put it in the mashine, and when done, there was this cute little doll sweater coming out.. -.-'
I gave it to the neighbours daugthers doll.. It was really annoying.. :p
Oh.. The time.. Have to walk the dogs before I'm off to school o.O
Hugs..
I just changed the default color palette to "Stitchboard Basic" for both crochet and knitting.
The basic palette has only 35 colors so the graphs will have far fewer and more standard colors. You can always change to other color palettes in section 5.

Dear Melanie!
Thank you so much for complementing me on my crocheting and on my English! (thank God there are online dictionaries!!!)
You are correct, it does look vertical. I have measured 10 stitches vertically and horizontally and they differ from each other for about 1mm. I am still in the process of making my pattern perfect. Terry has helped me a lot by upgrading me to 300 stitches in the pattern wizard, so I am not yet decided how large the picture will be. I am planning a blanket for my boyfriend with the logo of our favorite soccer club, so I now have to figure out how large to make the logo and how broad the edges around it will be. This will be a nice work for this weekend!
I am, in fact, not only a knitaholic, but I am also a numbers geek. I have made an xls-sheet, where I can input the colors via a number (1-6), and it will then calculate how much percent each color makes from the whole to determine my yarn needs. Of course, the sheet is formatted, so that when I enter a number it automatically shows the color it is supposed to be... :p
I can't wait to have the perfect pattern, because based on that, I know how much yarn to order (how many skeins of each color) and then I will still have to wait for the shipping...
Fortunately, there are still a few Christmas present projects I have to finish, so I am not bored until I can finally start with the blanket!
Once again, I have to say how happy I am that I found your page. It is really wonderful here! THANK YOU!
I posted one FREE knitting 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.)
