I'm working on one, and was going to send it to Amy when finished with the first draft - it's got a lot of errors in it at the moment.

I have a mircosoft works version which is fully checked for accuracy but is complete. I took it from an earlier version of Amy's and adapted it for the larger size. I haven't fully tested it because in the end I'm making Mermaid in a medium size as I have shrunk since I embarked on the whole project. If your PC has the Works suite on it, I'd be happy to send it across to you, with the caveat that it may have one or two errors in i. I have not yet found a way to convert it to a format which can be read by Excel - sorry!

My previous commetn should have read "which is NOT fully checked for accuracy". Sorry - finger trouble!

ros, i'd love to have your version. is it possible in works to save as .txt or .doc? that would make it much easier to open.

Arja - I've managed to save it as a text version. Can you email me your email address. I'll follow Amy's example and ask you a specific question relating to the original pattern and then send it across to you. In saving it as a text version it has lost all its formatting but the main content is there. My email address is rosandgrae@aol.com.

ros --

If you can export it as text with tab or comma delimiters, I can probably import it back into Excel. Send me an e-mail and we'll work it out.

I am starting the mermaid and glad I checked here. I will do the provisional caston and would love to have the large spreadsheet. Thanks, Anna

I've just ordered my kit for the mermaid and found this site. It sounds like the pattern is a bit confusing, is the spreadsheet helpful? Is it possible to get a copy in medium? My email is bee1979@eudoramail.com
I'm really excited to get started.
Thanks, B
