[Nfb-krafters-korner] online sites for purchasing yarn

[slerythema]

Lynda,

I, too, have been looking at my pattern works catalog (I look at the pretty
pictures and only deal with the print for things I am really interested in).
When they notate "written and charted" do you know if the pattern contains
part of it written and part of it charted or if it means that it is has a
complete chart and a complete set of written directions?
