New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

I've made a pattern and it was emailed to me but I'm having a problem. I'm trying to get the whole graph on 1 page and I have no idea how to do it. Also, do I need to have my pattern here on switchboard? My aunt was a famous quilter and I want to make her award winning quilt into a crocheted blanket. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Joyful1,
Welcome!
Wow, I'm just floored at what you've done!
Amazing, and at 68...how do
you see all of those little beads?
And designing your own loom is quite amazing, too!
The Stitchboard full chart isn't really a bead color chart. It's more for people who want to use non-standard palettes. I'd say to use either Miyuki Delica or Miyuki Seed for anything bead-related.
Again, your work is outstanding! Thanks so much for posting
your pics!
Piddy,
As long as you send the pattern through correctly, it shouldn't be out of proportion. In other words, if you send the pattern in vertically and then work it horizontally, it will be out of proportion because crochet stitches (e.g., single crochet stitches) are wide, not high.
If you send it through horizontally, then your stitches will be wide and can be worked horizontally.
The program isn't really concerned with how you send your image through, because it doesn't understand the difference between working your piece in "portrait" or "landscape" mode; it's up to you to be sure you send it in a way that will give it the proper aspect ratio so your stitches aren't skewed.

Talarat,
Welcome!
Please feel
free to post pictures of your work...we love to drool! 
Sci-fi and
fantasy are great for crochet...so much to choose from and always
interesting and different.
Pinkyrose,
