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!

Hi, thank you for letting me join. I love crocheting as it helps me relax especially the undoing of a couple of hours work!
I've taught myself from
online videos as I'm left handed and only been doing this for a
couple of years. I live in Norfolk, UK.
Tomorrow evening I'm going to my first meeting of the Dereham
Crafters, I just hope they don't throw me out for now being good
enough, lol. Take care xx
I know you can give a date on the C2C, but are you talking weeks or months? I would like to make this as a gift for Christmas
You're very welcome!
Wow, how cool that you like swatching! Wish I did, LOL.
If you're more comfortable knitting, then I'd say that's the way to go. It will probably make for a much more enjoyable project, too!
It definitely sounds like knitting will be better for this project, also for gauge and for sizing, as well as your level of enjoyment.
Awwww, we're so glad you like our site!
Oh, yes, Photoshop 7! The last remnants of the major standalone non-app programs. There's something to be said
for the old way of doing things. It's become a
compartmentalized, app-driven world, and sometimes it's nice to go
back to the old ways. It's why I really like Paint Shop
Pro, circa 1998. It's like wearing a comfortable pair of
old jeans!
Thanks Melanie,
No winners yet. 12 more days to go.

Welcome!
Lettering is
difficult because the letters will have to be large enough (e.g.,
no tiny lines, not large as in size) to be visible as lettering
when they're sent through the freePatternWizard. My best suggestion
is to experiment using a graphics program, reducing the image so
that 1 pixel = 1 stitch. In a later version of the software you'll
have a bit more control over something like working with an
alphabet, but as of now that's not available.
In particular, I'd look for a font that's not too fancy,
that doesn't have whispy lines or curly embellishments, as those
would tend to get lost unless your lettering was super thick. It
should be fairly basic and solid. You may also want to stay away
from serifs, as that would add thinner lines that would make it
difficult to to turn into a 1 pixel = 1 stitch ratio.
Hope that helps!
