My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Translating French knitting patterns

18 years ago

Can anyone here translate French knitting patterns? I bought a pattern while I was in Lyon a few weeks ago and my husband, who speaks French very well and attended university there, canot for the life of him translate these instructions. The pattern was lovely when made up in the shop, but without being able to translate it, I will never be able to make it.

Any help, even with phrases would be appreciated!
