They’re “stitch maps,” knitting charts drawn without grids so you can see what the fabric is really doing. You can read more about them (and play with them!) at my new website, Stitch-Maps.com.

As you might imagine, I’ve been working on Stitch-Maps.com for some time. And I had envisioned careful, controlled launch. Pfft. How does the saying go? “If you want to make the gods laugh, tell them about your plans.” This morning a post on Facebook mentioned Stitch-Maps.com. That got repeated on Ravelry. And that let the cat outta the bag.

So now you know. I’ve been neglecting this blog on account of Stitch-Maps.com. And I’m probably going to continue neglecting this blog for a while.

Oh, but what an excellent trade-off: Stitch-Maps.com is raring to go! Join the fun: check it out.

Want to know when something new, cool, and groovy hits Stitch-Maps.com? You have options:

Just be patient with the site, okay? It’s still pretty darn new. No doubt it has some kinks I’ll need to work out.
