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!)

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

Lauren,
A half cross stitch is basically working your stitches only one way, instead of returning and working the second slants over them to turn them into the X shape. So half cross stitches end up looking kind of like this:
/ / / / / / /
only they'll be a little different, as these slashes are a font and not a stitch, so they're not being stitched on squares, LOL.
I agree, Shaleigh's project looks totally amazing! Kiss


Veronica,
You're so welcome! Kiss
You're not just a good stitcher - you're a fast stitcher, too, apparently! Kiss I'm pokey slow. Laughing
I hope you'll have it done by Xmas! Kiss Do you have a local framer that knows how to frame cross stitch? That's something that has been hard to find wherever I've lived. Plenty of framers, but not ones who know how to frame cross stitch. Frown
Please feel free to keep sharing pictures of your progress! Kiss


Hello all,

New to this site -- referred by a FB fellow Tunisian crochet friend.  I'm wondering about software to produce charts for Tunisian patterns (not graphgans)--the type that indicate forward and reverse pass stitch/pattern info.  Does anyone have info on producing them?

Thanks in advance!

When it says 80 beads across for peyote stitch, how big is that in inches?

While backstitching is on our list of features for a future version of the freePatternWizard, it's not available with the current version.
