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

Lina,
Welcome! Smile
We give stitch counts, rather than skeins; you can use those counts with any stitch count calculator online that calculates skeins by using number of stitches and other factors, such as size of cloth, number of plies, length of skeins, etc.
Here is one such calculator:

Hope that helps!

Hi, 

Thank you Smiley

I made the pattern september 25th, so it's a little while ago. Finished doing the item recently and thought I would report it. 

Just let me know if you need the pdf.

Thanks Smiley

Tribble,

That's a great idea!  Kiss  I've done the same, taped pages together.  Part of the problem with not being able to use large paper to print out graphs (as one might get with a purchased cross stitch) pattern is that sometimes you have to find a different way to do something.  I haven't taped the pages together recently, but now I will!

That's personally reminiscent of making the large cross stitch pieces, such as the Lavender & Lace or the Mirabilia patterns, which are printed on very large paper, and (if one isn't careful) can wear so easily along the folds, because the paper is much thinner than normal printing paper.  So IMO your solution is a win-win!  Kiss

So glad you like the freePatternWizard!  Kiss

You've been upgraded to 300 stitches. Smile
