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!

I am wanting to make a graphgan from a picture of a recently deceased friend. This will be my first graphgan and would love input on which yarn you experienced graphganers (not sure if that is a word) feel makes the best blanket. Softness and weight of blanket when finished and durability are big factors for me. Thank you so much for your input!!!!!
I've already spent many hours working on a cross-stitch project generated with the pattern wizard, only to find that the floss colors specified on the pattern don't actually match the colors of the original image. They're close, but overall quite noticeably greener. For example, what's blue in my image is supposed to be stitched with a turquoise floss. The even weirder part is that the colors of the actual pattern itself, as they're printed in the grid, DO match the original image. But the floss it tells me to use does not match.
I can't see any way to salvage the work at this point, so I'm pretty much resigned to starting over.
Anybody have any comments, thoughts, suggestions for next time?
Thanks,
Laura
I posted two FREE jewelry making books 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 the two books is a two-book bundle, so in actuality, there are three free knitting books for today!
