Hello Again! Isn't this why the color code was created or am I imagining things again?! <g>

It possibly was, but there are still many publications - especially Guild magazines and low-budget instruction books where full colour printing would be far too expensive to contemplate. Many of the magazines are dependent upon members' contributions in the way of patterns and articles, and it is here where the terminology can differ from pattern to pattern - it requires a very observant editor to ensure consistency, to save confusing those reading! The letter definitions, CT etc, are very helpful in that they clearly show which stitch is being referred to. I also find it much less tongue-tying to teach a stitch naming the moves "cross, twist, cross" than the "two over three....." sequence! However, some people are more numerically minded and find the numbers easier to understand than the words.... we are all different!
