If your pattern is like most it just shows one profile image. Another carver gave me a tip tov both left and right profiles. Put the pattern in front of a mirror amd take a picture with your phone, resize it on the computer to mach the pattren size you are using. another way to line up the eyes is using two stick pins. locate the location of one eye, put a pin in what would be the center of the eye. Using that pin you can match up center of the other eye with a second pin. Here is another good pattern to ad to uor file. You can see the pin s being used at the bottom of the tutorial and below the tool list you can print the pattern if you like it.
I am always amazed when I realize how computer illiterate I am. For a number of years, I have gone to a mirror with a photograph of a pattern to have both left and right profiles. It has worked well but today my wife saw what I was doing and took me by the hand over to our computer. She had me open Microsoft 10, a file with my patterns and click on a photo, then click on edit and there on the right is a button that says “flip” I clicked, and I had a mirror image. Hit save copy and I was set. I am not sure how many years I have look at that button thinking it was like rotate. I am old and so is that excuse. Oh well I learned something useful today that’s a plus.
