Hey guys!
I know that I have a problem reading charts that are not in color and/or really small, so what I do is I download repaints! In any repaint program there is an option to export the file to a JPEG 4.4.4. I export it, usually at a really high DPI (probably unnessecarily high lol) I save it to my dropbox or upload it directly onto fedex online print service!
Then I go to kinkos/fedex and print out the pattern on an 11x17 paper. The quality is AWESOME and it only costs about 2 bucks. You can choose the type of paper, and I always go for the cheap stuff because I mark it off. It is printed with a laser printer so the picture is crisp and clear and beautiful!
Now here is where the magic happens!
I fold it up, stick it under my needle minder and work on a folded section at a time, marking off as I go. Then when I'm ready to go to the next section I unfold then refold and stick it back under the magnet!
When I have a pattern that includes backstitch, I like to print out the paper 2 sided. One side without bs and one side with.
I can only include one picture here for some reason, and so the pic is a picture of my current pattern that I bought for 1.38USD with a sharpie for size comparison. I am going to try and upload a couple more photos to expain the folding in the replies!
Enjoy your stitches!
