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!

do you know what size image would be good for beaded banners any help you can give would well appreciated. I do not know how to use this i am having trouble with number 6 which would would be the best option any help you can give me would be well appreciated
Helen,
Welcome!
Glad we could be of help!
If you're doing this as a standard single crochet pattern you'd chain 151...just think of this as a normal crochet pattern, where you'd need the one extra because you always skip one chain at the beginning, to turn so you're ready to start your first row. It really is a normal single crochet pattern, after all, just in graph form! So it follows all of the usual conventions, like the one extra turning chain.
You're so welcome!
Hi again.
I just sent you an email to which you can reply with the image.

Welcome!
At some point, we'll be making fonts available in cross stitch. For now, the best thing to do is to use a "better" format than jpg, as jpgs have color smudges and non-true colors. If you start out with black and white in a jpg, 0, 0, 0 and 255, 255, 255, you'll probably get other colors as the smudging becomes part of the pattern. You're better off using a png or gif format to upload...but be careful that you're not taking a jpg and saving it as a png or gif, because that's only going to put a bad image in a decent format (trust me, that's more trouble than it's worth).
You can also use the "stray pixel cleanup" in option #8, but keep in mind if you do that with a format such as a jpg, there's only so much the program can do with it.
