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!

Yes I have a simple pattern but it is a graph, I wanted a Eiffel Tower pattern to crochet,,, there are very few, found a couple but they were small.... found this pattern with just the tower and a few hearts,,,,,, what I may do is just try and make it as a filet crochet and put a dark fleece behind it,,,,,, not sure,,,, looks like I have lots of work ahead,, whatever I do.... thanks for your help,,,,,, Nadine
You're very welcome!
1) I've upgraded you.
2) This part is a little more complex. Since you're new at it, I would say to try a small practice piece. Once you get the hang of it, then I'd say to try something larger. I'm sure you'd rather just get started, but I can relate this to how I do things...I often try starting something big first, but ultimately I give up. That's when I try something smaller. (This is what I did with bead crochet. I couldn't do it and almost gave up, but then I started working with pony beads and yarn, which accustomed me to holding the crochet hook.)
The pattern follows conventional rules; e.g., you make your starting chain with one extra for the turn. Then the first row starts with single crochets (and that's the stitch you'll be using throughout the piece). So if your pattern is 150 across, you would start at the bottom with 151 chains, then the first row would be single crochets into the chains.
Hi my name Wanda and I live in Isabela, Puerto Rico. I love to crochet and now I'm learning to do graphgans. It's been a slow process but the group I'm in is very helpful. Hopefully I can get some input on how to do graphs here in crochet.
Hi Terry,
Just wanted to know if the link is ready for the preview of the version of the wotd chart?? Or perhaps it's ready for us to do our photo patterns?? I've been patiently waiting for this feature to be added.
Becky,
Wow, we like to complain about the inconsistency in how these "standards" are applied,
but it sounds like it may be worse for you.
If the yarn you are using is in the medium size range, then a P hook (10mm) would give you almost square stitches.
If it's on the thinner side, I'll have to check my notes.
