About the Charts
The stranded charts can be used individually and in combination to create scarves, shawls, garments, patchworks, throws, afghans, blankets, cushions, bags, socks, etc.
I have used plain yarns for clarity in the images, but you can also use variegated yarns or more creative color combinations.

The techniques include stranded knitting and increasing & decreasing. The increases I use are M1R and M1L. The technique is explained very clearly on KnittingHelp.com.

Always strand the main color above the contrast color. Trapping of floating threads is required on some of the designs.

The lace charts are all designed to be worked in one piece - no provisional cast ons, or borders to add.

Downloading Charts
Immediately after you have successfully completed your PayPal payment, an email will be sent to your PayPal email address from downloads@ravelry.com containing a download link for the chart. Clicking on the download link will take you to the Ravelry download page, from where you can download the chart. To download the chart, simply follow the instructions on the download page and save the file. In addition, if you are a Ravelry member, you will be given the option to add the chart to your Ravelry library. If you are not a Ravelry member, or if your PayPal email address is not recognised by Ravelry as belonging to a member, you may be asked to input your email address so that Ravelry can locate the purchase.

You should also be automatically redirected from the PayPal Payment Confirmation page to the Ravelry download page. But do not worry if you are not redirected (this occasionally happens), since the download link will have already been emailed to your PayPal email address.

Should you lose the link to the download page or should you have any difficulty downloading the file, please immediately email knit/lab quoting your PayPal email address and the chart will be emailed to you.

Do you use different email addresses for Ravelry and PayPal?
The email containing a download link for the chart you have purchased will always be sent to your PayPal email address from downloads@ravelry.com. Please keep this in mind if you use different email addresses for PayPal and Ravelry.

Printing Charts
The charts are provided in pdf format and can be read and printed with a suitable pdf reader such as Adobe Reader, which can be downloaded for free here or by clicking on the Get Adobe Reader button at the bottom of this page. Each chart has a cover page with full color pictures, followed by the chart itself (including instructions where relevant) in black and white on the subsequent page(s). All pages will print at good quality on either a color or black and white desktop printer in landscape orientation and using A4 or US Letter size paper. Should you wish to print onto smaller paper, select Page Scaling: Fit to Printable Area in the Adobe Reader Print dialog box.

Using PayPal
Payments are processed through PayPal. If you do not have a PayPal account, you do not need to sign up for one and you can still pay with a credit card (Visa, MasterCard, American Express or Discover) via PayPal's secure interface. Immediately after you have successfully completed your PayPal payment, an email will be sent to your PayPal email address containing a download link for the chart. Clicking on the download link will take you to the Ravelry download page, from where you can download the chart. You should also be automatically redirected from the PayPal Payment Confirmation page to the Ravelry download page. But do not worry if you are not redirected (this occasionally happens), since the download link will have already been emailed to you.
