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!

Hi Everyone,
I'm new to this site, I just signed up about 10 minutes ago. I have been doing fractional cross stitches for many years and i'm sorry but I must disagree that they are difficult. I have no problem doing them, if anyone wants help with figuring them out perhaps i can give some advice.

Hello
Hi.. I'm new here and am trying to figure out how much yarn I need for a pattern I generated last night. BTW: Thank you for this service, this is wonderful!!
I have my stitch count from the pattern, and followed Melanie's link. However this makes no sense. The author of the calculator is saying a sc takes 1.8 inches.. that seems huge to me. I did a swatch of 10x10 in US dc, and my guage is 3 inches across and 6.5 inches tall.
According to the calculator.. taking that 1 stitch is .3 inches, I'd only need 57 yards of white for 6,922 stitches...
I'm confused!! lol

Hello
GmaMiller,
Welcome! 
I'm sorry to
say that capability isn't available at this time. Originally, the
freePatternWizard was designed to figure out the rows automatically
because we were afraid people were going to truncate or skew their
patterns and we wanted to preserve the correct aspect
ratio.
This will be addressed in a future
issue (unfortunately, I don't have a date as to when that will be
available), so for now the only way of compensating is to add
borders to your original image on the left and the right and then
keep working with it until the dimensions are as you want. I
apologize; I know this isn't pretty or a great solution, but until
the capability is available to designate the number of rows, that's
the best way to get to the dimensions you want.
And...a cat? Oooh, do tell! Not that I love cats or
anything (besotted). 
Secoya,
Now, THIS I love and I'm
going to have to steal your idea to just stitch the cupcakes!
Love your fractional stitches, too, but
I am allergic to them. 
LOL. You're absolutely BRILLIANT,
because the month names are really superfluous to the project and
the cupcakes should be the stars of the show!

them out across your fabric so they'll all be even? These look SO
amazing!
