Thank you for the Russian translation of symbols. It would be most helpful if the translation accompanied the picture of the symbol.
This is brilliant. I have been waiting for someone who speaks/reads/writes English and Russian to start creating Russian patterns in proper USA terms to no avail. There is a killing to be made and no one seems to want it. Have you noticed, especially on Pinterest, that whatever art the Russians create it’s absolutely incredible? I actually researched why and it turns out it’s because in their country they believe it’s super important to teach the arts to children at a very early age, so they start in kindergarten and develop these amazing skills. I wish we did that around the world. Our creativity is the most important skill we have.
Hi Christina, I only have the terms that I’ve shared in the post. Sorry about that! They were submitted by volunteers (since I only speak English). Best wishes, Rhondda
Lou’ that was incredibly helpful! Thank you for those terms. Do you also know what the term Sand means? Thanks.
Hi Sue, I’m not familiar with those abbreviations. Does the pattern have a special stitches section that they have designated a ‘special’ stitch with one of those abbreviations? I’ve cross checked against all the translations I have available on the site and those are not coming up. The translation project includes translations submitted by volunteers from around the world. I don’t have the ability to ‘translate’ terms beyond those which I have shared on the site. Best wishes, Rhondda
I am crocheting a pattern that has abbreviations new to me: pattern reads:
4 prs, 1 dec, 5 prs.
What is prs?
Also
11 sbn, 1 dec, 3 sbn
What is sbn?
I need English translation.
Thank you in advance,
Sue
