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!

Nicola,
Welcome!
LOL, I'm going to mention that dirty phrase here...gauge swatch. That will be key to figuring out what size yarn and hook you're going to use. My best suggestion is to start with worsted weight and a hook that will give you stitches that aren't too large or too small. Make a gauge swatch and then determine how many stitches and rows per inch; divide those numbers into the numbers of stitches and rows in your pattern, and that will determine approximate finished size. (I say approximate because, of course, gauge can be fickle, which is where blocking comes in.)
I know, most people (myself included) despise gauge swatches, but they're a necessary evil, bwahahahahaha!
Hello! My name is Helen and I'm new to the Stitchboard community. I used the freePatternWizard to design my graphgan pattern (numbers and words) today. Totaly amazing! Now how many chains are needed to start my project of 150 wide x 125 high single crochet? I want to make sure so that I don't start with the wrong number. Many thanks.
WOW, Terry!
These upgrades sound awesome! Looking forward to seeing the implementation of some of these new great features!
Thank you for providing such a wonderful resources for us stitchers.
hehe we definitely think alike
For some reason, any time I create a pattern, I am unable to select "artwork" under the color choosing method options. It's like the button is broken and will not select no matter what I do. I've tried on iPad and computer in case it was an error on my end, and it didn't work.
