Paternayan yarn numbers
Hi, I am thinking about making the pattern "Tinkle, a Cat" from the
book by Brande Ormond, _American Primitives in Needlepoint_. But when I look at the Paternayan yarn numbers, they are so different! This calls for quite a lot of Dark Red #201, but when I look at color charts, 201 is quite a shade of grey! Is there any way to convert these numbers? I have googled it and had no luck at all. |

You aren't mixing up Paterna and Paternayan are you? One's British, the
other American. Most of the colors are the same, but some are different.

Will check. ----------------------- Yes, Paternayan. but like I said, when I look at the color charts online, some of the colors aren't even there, and the ones that are, are just different. Gray, instead of red. that kind of thing. |

Might be worth checking out a Paterna color chart just in case. -- Brenda Help Project Gutenberg--become a Distributed Proofreader http://www.pgdp.net/ |

I did a bit more research.
Your book was published in 1977. Paternayan colors changed some time in the 1980's I think, so you should be looking for a conversion chart of the old to new Paternayan colors. From what I've read the company never issued a conversion chart although I think there were conversion charts published by other parties. Some magazine called Needlepoint News published one, according to a google of this group. Dora elderberry22 wrote: bungadora wrote: You aren't mixing up Paterna and Paternayan are you?

As a followup, the only reference I have been able to find to a conversion chart was Needlepoint News, March-April 1982. Otherwise a google search suggested contacting JCA. Their website is http://www.jcacrafts.com/index.php/ I think I'll do some needlepoint now. Dora |

Now if I can just figure out how much yarn, I will be set. |
Paternayan yarn numbers
Glad to help. I might contact JCA myself, just to find out whether
they ever produced their own conversion chart. Some of the comments on google seemed to indicate that they did not. Kind of odd it isn't easier to find.

What luck! I was hoping to find someone on this newsgroup that might know if
these Paternayan numbers have changed. I was looking for #520, for an OLD 1976 project I am working on. No. 520 is a Teal Blue shade now and the color I need is green, which looks like #630. Thank you! This project is one of 3 President's wives; Martha Washington, Julia Tyler and Sara Jackson, from a McCall's magazine. Susanne "elderberry22" wrote in message ps.com...

I only have a few rows of the green at the very bottom to finish, and then the braid wrapped around the top of her head. I just noticed the top of her head should have been done in continental stitch. Maybe when it is washed and blocked it won't be distorted? I might just frame this rather than make the doll. Susanne |
Paternayan yarn numbers
Ah well. A bit of distortion is almost a given with continental. I
think the degree depends on the quality of the canvas and the frame. Long stitch is nice that way. Almost no distortion. I always wondered how well those dolls would stand up as a 3D. McCalls used to publish and re-publish patterns later in special editions, and I think that is where I have that pattern. I'll have to take a look later to see if I still have it, or whether I disposed of it in one of my ruthless cleaning streaks.

I have a Paternayan card that has samples of each color and a
conversion chart for Elsa Williams Tapestry yarn. By checking the earlier messages, I see that it has the newer color numbers. The card has five pages of samples and folds in on itself to protect the yarn - all 405 small samples. Because I have a number of early 1970s books, particularly bargello ones, I would like to obtain a copy of the Paternayan conversion chart. Would anyone who has it be willing to scan it? Or if you would send me a scan or copy, I would create an Excel spreadsheet that has the conversions and send it to anyone who wanted it.

I tried writing JCA about a week ago and haven't had an answer yet on
whether they still have a chart available or not. If I don't hear back from them next week, I'll try writing again. If not, and if you succeed in your enterprise I'd like to have a copy. I also have a few 1970's patterns I wouldn't mind decoding, particularly a book on Persian rug designs. Mind you, if I haven't been able to get around to them after nearly 30 years there's a good chance I never will.

And the difference between US Paternayan and UK Paterna is that some of those lovely colours that used to be available in the US are still available in the UK. The UK have different numbers and no comparison is perfect--I got a shade card from Sew Exciting in the UK for a reasonable sum.

There is a conversion chart at http://makeashorterlink.com/?X5CE24EED
And what looks like a handy page at http://www.fibergypsy.com/threadlist/index.shtml Don't know if it is what you need but it may help -- Bruce Fletcher btinternetDOTcomATricardian Stronsay, Orkney www.stronsay.co.uk/claremont "Why does mineral water that has been stored underground for thousands of years have a 'use by' date?" |

Thanks, but the conversion we're doing in this case are the old
Paternayan numbers (pre 1982) to post 1982 numbers, to a certain point of course. I'm sure they introduced new colors after the chart was published.

Otherwise a google search suggested contacting JCA. Their website is http://www.jcacrafts.com/index.php/ I think I'll do some needlepoint now. Dora Thank you VERY MUCH. I was able to buy a copy of this magazine on eBay. Now if I can just figure out how much yarn, I will be set. Hi, I have this same book and am wanting to do Chilly Observation. Did the magazine you purchased help with the conversion of colors? If so, are you willing to share? Thank you! Meg -- |

Thank you so much for doing this. I too have been in touch with Saco Dye in Maine, who took over from JCA, without any success. Pure fluke that I came across this Google forum with these 11 year old posts, but I am very happy to have this information. |

I know this thread is 12 years old, but I was hoping it was still active somehow. Elderberry22 was kindling listing the conversion chart number of old to new Paternayan yarn colors, but the listing stops with old 430, and the old numbering system kept going up from there. Was the rest of the conversion numbers ever listed? -- |
