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!

Hi,
Are you talking about the image on the cover sheet or all the chart pages?
Or are you talking about black lines not showing in dark areas because everything is dark? Like black grid lines with black filled-in boxes?
I'm a bit confused when you say too light. The rectangles that represent stitches should be black with filled in colors and symbols.
Please let me know a bit more. I'm always interested in hearing about problems and usage issues that I can address with program updates.
FYI: I did make a change to the cover sheet image in the next version.

Aabye,
Glad you've picked the project back up. I have so many unfinished projects lying about. So you are welcome for that.
I am really enjoying doing the graphghans. They can be nerve wracking with all these bobbins and color changes - goodness but I am so excited to see how it all turns out.
I think you should definately try one, it is fun watching the picture develope.
Oh thanks so much for getting back to my question. I'll start today on it. And yes lots and lots of coffee ☕️☕️☕️

Mary,
Welcome! 
Working from a
photograph with only 60 stitches across is simply too small. You
won't get much resolution, because there isn't much
room.
If you can take a look at
your photo with a graphics program, you can see how small of an
area approximately 60 x 70 pixels is, and that's not even taking
into account that you may not want to have your stitching all the
way out to the edge. If you zoom in, it will be such a negligible
amount of the photo, it will likely not look like much of anything,
more of a blob of color.
I'm not sure what
to suggest to work with that small of an area and a photograph. You
can try reducing it, again with a graphics program (the
freePatternWizard doesn't work like a graphics program, so it will
indiscriminately choose pixels regardless of what you want), though
the results are likely to not turn out well.
I'm so sorry not to have a better answer for you. If
you're on a Windows computer and don't have a graphics program, I
can give you links to two very powerful, free programs that have
been around for at least two decades, so you can look closely at
and/or edit your photos.
Sajani,
As long as you're the
copyright holder of the image, yes!
