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.

We have many more features planned, too!

Hi I am new on this board.... thank you for accept. I live at the Netherlands. My hobbies are embroidery and readig... most historical stories. Last week we had an amazing weekend with a lot of spectaculair airshows. The Northern lights. For years I am searching to get a nice picture of the lights for a cross-stitchpattern. Now I found 3 of them . So happy found your website to make 1 by myself. All I have to do now is pick out 1, grab the yarn, fabric and start. Happy, greetings Thijsse
Hi OnyxHades! I'll alert Terry (Support) to your message. Unless I'm way off, I believe this may be an issue he's currently working on.
Nanaz,
Great questions!
No worries, you're not doing
anything wrong!
First, are you talking about using a word chart?
You're correct that we've added the "I am left handed" option.
As for the correctness, I've alerted Terry (Support) to your message. I believe a recent update may have caused the left handed option to stop working properly at times, so this is why I've handed this to Terry. Please bear with us!
Regarding your question about reading a pattern, if you're talking about a graph, you'd read it normally; which is the same thing you've mentioned in both A and B above. You do turn your work at the end of each row. And since you're left handed, your work is odd/even. Your odd rows are working from left to right and your even rows are working from right to left. However, if you're talking about a word chart, then you would follow it as given, which is written to follow as the B option for you, if that's clear.
As for the current correctness of the left handed charts, as I said, please bear with us so I can determine if they're correct or not. I'd hate to have you frog and start your project again!

Thijsse,
Welcome...what a
beautiful name! 
So glad you were
able to get great pictures of the Northern Lights, particularly
something you can turn into a pattern. Please feel free to share
pics of whatever you make...we love to drool! 
Do you usually
get to see the Northern Lights in your location? We never have.
Recently, we should have been able to see them, but the sky was
overcast. Lol, we can usually predict the weather by when there
will be something to see in the sky...Northern Lights, meteor
showers...it will always be overcast or rainy. 
Have a
lovely day/night, and enjoy your stitching!

Debi,
Thanks! YouTube is a great
resource, and nice to know about Flosstubers!
