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!

Welcome!
I noticed this with my current afghans I am making. I have cut out a good many and changed to colors that I like. For example the afghan I am making for my son has a shadow and around 3 colors for the shadow. I eliminated two of the colors and am only using one color for the shadow. So when the stich is one of the other colors I simply continue on with the shadow color I am using. Now, hopefully that made sense. LOL...

Secoya,
April turned out divine!
I don't think it matters one bit that
it's not more of an egg shape...I think it's unique and wonderful.
This is the kind of thing I do, make something my own, even if it's
not "conventional." Besides, if you're making it for you, you have
every right to do something that you like best!
Can I ask you
for a big favor, though? If you edit the top message to add your
picture, can you also create a new reply message, also with the new
picture? If you only edit, nobody really knows you posted anything,
but if you add a new message then the category will light up with a
"NEW." And I want people to see your beautiful work
every time!
Hi everyone! I've just joined. Been
browsing a bit - what a lovely group!
I'm an experienced crafter (of many more years than I'd
care to admit), but dismayed at the lack of knowledge people
generally have of crafting. I realise however, that I
myself do less than I imagine, or would like to do.
Hopefully this group will encourage me to share some of
my original patterns, and create more - espcially as I see a rising
trend of lace-trimmed garments in UK stores!
QUESTION:
Do you use UK or US
pattern instructions?
I found some years
ago that they differ, startingly, which can be a real challenge for
beginners (as well as those creating patterns for sites like this).
UK chain = US ?
UK
double crochet = US single crochet as far as I recall
UK half treble = ?
UK treble =
?
UK double treble = ?
Then there's slip stitch . . .
