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

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

I will try to keep doing monthly updates at least. And I have made some decent progress. Work has been stressful so getting to sit, stitch and listen to audiobooks in the evenings has been a much needed form of therapy.
Thanks for the info on removing stains. I decided to start of simple, I soaked the work in water that was laced with dish washing soap. It helped a little. Definitely with the more obvious stains that were spills from a drink. Little less with the finger grease. But to be fair, I left it to soak overnight but didnt really move it around much to encourage the grease to come loose. I think I will give it another go soon.
I actually looked into Q-snaps when I first started this project and decided that I didn't want to use a hoop. They seemed nice but as they would have taken weeks to ship then I was not going to wait for that. One question I still had was that while they look more forgiving than hoops, what sort of an effect does it have if you have to snap in an already stitched area?
The pictures below were taken right before I washed the piece, so apologies that its a bit dirty.


Secoya,
Here's hoping he finds something sooner rather than later, to give him more time to enjoy what he loves. Kiss


Hi.

Hmm.  That message can mean a few things.  In case it's an issue that I need to address in the program, could you please let me know your iPhone model and iOS version?

As I always say, I want to look into it anytime someone has a problem to see if it's something I can allow for in the program.  I've had a couple times in the past that someone had a problem and we found that the manufacturer was changing the format slightly and causing an error on our end.  Once I got details, I added compatibility in the program and everything then worked with the new format.

So please let me know your iPhone model and iOS version.  Thanks.

Terry

Debbie,

I'm so glad you've been benefiting from the YouTube videos, especially to the point of looking like a seasoned professional!  Kiss  For learning new things (or for a refresher of forgotten techniques), YouTube is so invaluable.

I was recently struggling with a "wrap & turn" (short rows) when working very, very small.  Though I ultimately found some clear photos on what to do, I was working too small for them, so I was lucky to find a tutorial that was an alternative to the now-dreaded "w&t," LOL.  Now short rows are so easy, it's like there was no reason to ever have been worried about those "w&t" instructions!

Oh, no, left handed...that's incredibly difficult!  Cry  I've tried left-handed knitting and crochet and it's impossible as a right-handed person.

It's lovely how you share the things you've learned.  Kiss  It's so much more enjoyable that way.  Kiss

And isn't it wonderful to watch someone take that next step from being inspired?  Kiss
