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

Iconstable,

Welcome! Smile

You're correct; the "standard" stitch is single crochet. The reason we call it that is because it's called a double crochet in the UK (isn't that confusing? What we call a double crochet here is a treble crochet in the UK). This way, with one generic term we cover both American and UK terms at the same time. BTW, thanks for clarifying American single crochet, so I would know exactly what you're talking about! Smile

So you're doing perfectly fine...just keep on with the single crochet and that's exactly what you should be doing! Smile

Line,

Awww, how sweet...he loves the hat so much, he won't take it off...so precious!  Kiss

It really is flattering when something is appreciated, particularly with kids.  Kids can be very honest until they get to the age where they learn self-editing, so to speak, and if they don't like something they'll say it!

So glad you won't have to redo it!  Kiss

I hope the yarn does expand.  If not...can you work into it at a later date?  Or would you just make another?

Well, people are dumb, then, because I think it's lovely!  Kiss  So what if it's unusual...that's what makes it so interesting!  Meh, who wants a "same old, same old" hat...boring.

That's the best part of all, and the main thing that counts, that Noah loves it.  Kiss  LOL, I mean, since it is for him, and all.  Wink

Hugs,
Melanie

I ran across your site, decided to check it out! I crochet and knit..but want to try picture afghans! Been playing with the pattern wizard and hope I can try one!

DJ,

Welcome!  Smile

So happy you've found us!  Smile  The community isn't super active at this time, but I'm always around (and always up for great beading conversations...can never get enough of those!) and I know we have several other beaders who stop by from time to time.

Please feel free to share your photos, whether or not the items were made with the freePatternWizard...we love to drool!  Wink

Hee hee, I'm almost embarrassed to say I've been beading for 15 years now...I feel old!  Surprised  I started with crochet, knitting, went to cross stitch, too, and then the beading bug bit...love it!  Smile  I'm always looking to try new things, and judging by your zeal for crafts, I'm guessing you're also up for a crafty challenge here and there!  Smile

this is how dumb men are though because if a man had a brain cell then men wouldn't start wars and kill each other and women and children over oil and god only knows what else all through history it's always been a man who starts a bloody war you never see us women starting wars it's always the men who start them and us women have to sort out the shit they create
