Hi Debby,Often the charts are mentioned in the patterns themselves (use Chart X to complete pattern rows 9-57, reading the K rows from left to right and the P rows from right to left), something like that--and then no chart is there. It may be that Bookshare's software chucks the charts because they look like garbage characters, but I don't know that. I just know it's frustrating to read through a pattern, say to myself "Oh, that looks great! Can't wait to make it," and then find out I can't because the charts are missing.

Hi Tracy, Jamie and anyone who has had anything to do with knitting books!Are the charts missing entirely, or are they a graphic, which would do those like me with no sight, no good?Debby At 08:47 AM 2/10/2012, Tracy Carcione wroteI guess we've identified an area where our books are better than PQ--we take the trouble to put in complicated charts if we can.
