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

Thanks so much Melanie.
What sort of home improvements do you have going on? I don't mind doing them usually, but I am not working on them just for my own place, I am helping my dad renovate some apartments so we could rent them out.
My latest update is a bit... late Cheesy
But I am at the spot I was on Sunday, when I usually take the progress photos. This Monday was probably the first day in a month where I didn't work on it for at least a little while. So next weeks progress might be less. But last week I got to do more than I expected, so that is nice.
Filling in the little gaps in big patches of solid colour takes so long. A lot of colour swaps. One thread gets you sometimes only 1-3 stitches. Working really hard to keep it tidy in the back too. Not always succeeding Cheesy Might take a picture of that next time too.

Valerie,

Welcome!  Smile

You're not missing anything.  Outlining (backstitch) isn't available at this time.  At some point in the future I'm sure we'll be adding it, but I don't have a time frame available.

Monica,

I'm not left-handed, but I totally get what you're saying!  I taught a crochet class and one of the women turned out to be left handed.  I offered to stand in front of a mirror, but she said she was fine with the class just as she was...I would have been completely confused!

I've taught knitting, though I don't recall anyone saying they were left handed, so maybe I was just lucky that if there was a left handed person in the class, they figured it out on their own.

I did try to learn left handed crochet, but it was soooo difficult trying to figure out how to hold the hook and yarn.  Finally had to stop, because nothing was getting accomplished.  Frown  Now I tell left handed potential crocheters they're welcome to watch a mirror, and if not, they'll need to find a left handed teacher, unless they can figure it out on their own, like the one woman did.  And she did pretty well, so that was really cool!  Smile

Neave,

Priceless!  Laughing  That's the kind of thing where you wish you could be a fly on the wall, just to hear the reaction.  Laughing
