[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Knitting charts

I would also be interested in learning how to better read charts, as there
are charts in the Interweaves Knitting Magazine.
Thank you.

Deborah, was it you asking if people are interested in braille knitting
charts?  I am quite interested, especially for 2 applications. 

It would be really handy if a print chart could be easily converted to
braille.  My first question when I'm looking at a new pattern is "Is it only
a chart, or are there written instructions?".  If it's just a chart, I don't
pursue it. 

The other thing I sometimes want to do is make my own chart.  I can draw
some, and I can imagine things, but it's hard to turn those ideas into an
actual usable pattern. 

So those are the things I'd like to be able to do with charts.  And then
there's my lifelong love of maps and tactile pictures. 

Tracy
