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!

Where did it go? I don't even see the pic of it now. But yes Melanie it actually is crochet and not a pic of a photo. Maybe I should take another pic of it and include the hook and mass of threads I'm using.
Hi, All.
I'm at the tail end of testing about 27 fixes but thought I'd start turning on a few additions/corrections.
This version now shows the yarn manufacturer name on the word chart cover sheets.
Before this it always showed "Palette used: Stitchboard Word Chart" but now shows the manufacturer.
I hope to finish the testing on the next group of updates very soon.
Terry
Nanaz,
Great questions!
No worries, you're not doing
anything wrong!
First, are you talking about using a word chart?
You're correct that we've added the "I am left handed" option.
As for the correctness, I've alerted Terry (Support) to your message. I believe a recent update may have caused the left handed option to stop working properly at times, so this is why I've handed this to Terry. Please bear with us!
Regarding your question about reading a pattern, if you're talking about a graph, you'd read it normally; which is the same thing you've mentioned in both A and B above. You do turn your work at the end of each row. And since you're left handed, your work is odd/even. Your odd rows are working from left to right and your even rows are working from right to left. However, if you're talking about a word chart, then you would follow it as given, which is written to follow as the B option for you, if that's clear.
As for the current correctness of the left handed charts, as I said, please bear with us so I can determine if they're correct or not. I'd hate to have you frog and start your project again!
Sherry,
That sure does look like something...it's very recognizable!
Excellent work. That's going to be one lucky
recipient!
Line,
LOL, I can so relate to you almost hating your cardigan! Every time I make something large, I get very frustrated that it takes so long.
Oh, yum, the yarn sounds wonderful!
Hugs,
Melanie
