The front page of this site, which contains a listing of all of our published charts, now includes a simple search feature that makes it easier to locate specific charts.
When you visit the home page of potholders.piglet.org, you’ll see a gray field near the top prompting you to “type to search.”
As you type into that field, the list of charts on the page will be filtered to only show matching entries. For example, if you type in “basket” the page will show only basketweave patterns.
Searching only works on the visible titles, so this will not find descriptive commentary that may appear in the comments area on an individual chart.
You can filter for charts by size, so if you type in “19” you’ll see only patterns which include a 19-peg chart.
Search Links
You can also include search terms in links, so if you send someone a link to https://potholders.piglet.org/?nine they will see a listing of just the nine-block charts.
This allows linking to individual charts such as https://potholders.piglet.org/?hallstat, or just the PDF files with https://potholders.piglet.org/?pdf.
Regular Expressions
The search feature uses your browser’s regular-expression engine, so you can search for “17|19” to find patterns with either a 17-peg chart or a 19-peg chart.
These can be included in links, so https://potholders.piglet.org/?waffle|padded will lead people to a page displaying patterns which contain either “waffle” or “padded.”
