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

You may have seen my post in the community section about having a stitch-along. But I have found a free one! They are the Month Cupcakes from Cyberstitchers.com, which has a ton of other nice free patterns and resources. If you want to do them with me, you can find them here. I am very excited that StitchboardAdmin Melanie may be joining me!
I have already finished January and February. The cupcakes are supposed to have the month's name on the bottom (Jan, Feb, etc.), but I do not have enough time to stitch that. I will, however, leave space in case I decide to do it later. I also added a lot of fractional stitches to make the backstitching look smoother and more like a cupcake, but that is up to you if you want to do it. I plan to start on March tomorrow, once I finish a project with a deadline. The great thing about these cupcakes is that they only take me about two days of stitching each, so I can fit the in between my bigger projects. I will update this page as I go.
Here is my progress:

UPDATE: March Cupcake! I finished it last night and I already love it! March is my birthday month, so I made this one extra-special. Sorry that the picture is on it's side, I could not figure out how to get it right side up.

UPDATE: April Cupcake! I just finished it. Yes, that is supposed to be an Easter Egg at the top there. April is a very special month for me beacuse it has the birthdays of two of my three fishes! The cupcake was already yellow (like one of my fishes), but the Easter Egg was supposed to be pink and green. I kept the pink, but changed the green to DMC 334 (a nice blue) because the other fish is blue and pink. So now I have both April birthdays in one cupcake! Besides the diamond-shaped Easter Egg (in the pattern it was more round, I reallly messed it up) I love how April turned out.





Hi, I am about to start a new graphghan, I would like to know how to read the instructions on how many balls of wool to buy. I dont understand the count, or the colour number.  
Thank you, Sharon.

Pat,
Welcome! Smile
No worries, you haven't done anything wrong. At this time the freePatternWizard doesn't have editing capabilities. These are in our future plans, but exactly when they'll be available isn't yet known, I'm sorry to say.
I'm not sure what you're looking at when it says your patterns aren't showing in your account. If you're looking at the mall, then that indicates what you've purchased or downloaded for free, but mall patterns have nothing at all to do with your own patterns that you've created. Those won't show in the mall as downloaded patterns at all.


Hi terry,
Thanks for the prompt response. I can do either, whichever works better for you.

Thanks,
Cristy
