Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features.

Hello
I'm Anjanette from Louisville.
Neave,
Welcome back, great to see you! You are a sight for sore eyes...LOL, however that works online!
Oh, Nicky was okay, and I told him that. No worries, hon, you guys are okay with me and the apology was completely unnecessary. He wasn't being a diva.
Melanie,
It will be no problem working into it later on.. Unless the yarn filters together when washed.. I don't think it will, but you never know . it is 100% highland wool exept for the light blue and the darker green.. Those to colors have silk in them..
Maybe I will just work into it in a couple of days just to be on the safe side.. I have to make it a big longer anyway.. Donøt know how I will do that, but none the less it has to be done.. :p
Aaaaaaah.. Just went on my winter break.. I have been looking forward to that..
I have decided that both of the boys will go to their kindergarden monday and tuesday so that I have some time for my self.. I need a couple of days where I can be all alone.. I also have some school work to catch up on.. Sigh..
Hugs
Lol I can't believe anyone making barbie dresses from looms. As far as a preference goes its easier to make scarves and panels on the needles and they are less bulkier than the loom. I'm still trying to figure out the double pointed needles and making hats on them, oh well right? So far all i've made on the needles are scarves and a blanket i'm finishing up the second one now. I'm planning on trying to make my nephew a hat on the double pointed needles with the fair isle persuasion, never did it before so I figured it would work out with trying a couple of new things at once......

GlMack,
Welcome!
Just to
clarify, are you trying to make your own pattern from an image into
a square pattern?
The difficulty is likely
that our software doesn't allow you to designate numbers for rows.
That was originally done because we didn't want people getting
skewed patterns that were either truncated or just too
long.
This will change with a later version
of the software, but in the meantime, it still won't allow you to
set the number of rows, only the number of stitches.
What makes it more complex with crochet, as opposed to
cross stitch, is crochet stitches are not square.
What I can suggest is to add plain borders to your
design beforehand, so that when you run it through the
freePatternWizard it has a better chance of making it square, so
that even though the number of rows or stitches might not be
exactly what you want, the system will "see" it as a square design.
In other words, if you have something that you make square to begin
with, say, 80x80 pixels instead of 80x65, you have a better chance
of getting a square pattern.
Hope that
helps!
