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!

xpaganwitchx,
Hello there, and welcome.
I find it's best to limit the number of colors, although sometimes that just looks really bad. The simpler the image, the better, especially if you can choose your own colors (there is a selection for this).
The big problem is that there is no one company that makes all of those colors, and mixing yarns from different companies rarely works out well.
So it's an excercise in
frustration as well as being a bit overwhelming.
Lynn,
You're very welcome!
We've been talking for some time about making other brands available in the freePatternWizard. I live in a somewhat small
town, as well, and there are only two places to get yarn, a craft
store and a department store. So the choices are very,
very limited. And you're right, Red Heart Super Saver
appears to be far easier to find than many other brands/types of
yarn.
Thank you for the suggestion! We may need to move it up in
priority, particularly if we're going to lose the Lion Brand Wool
Ease.
i need upgarde to 300 please
I posted two FREE knitting patterns for Kindle for today...grab them before they're 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.)

* One of today's knitting books is a two-book bundle, so technically there are three free knitting books today!
