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!

Hi, and welcome!
Could you please let me know the version of Kindle you're using. Many earlier Kindles were not manufactured to be used as a computer and don't have browsers with more modern downloading capabilities.
If you can let me know your Kindle model, I'll look into its capabilities and let you know more. Also please let me know if you're using the Dolphin browser and possibly its version.

Hi ladies...I'm trying to find a pattern to make a graphgan of the movie "Up". I would like to just have the house and balloons and the quote "Adventure is out there". I dont mind paying for the pattern. I've tried to make a graph myself but it didn't turn out the way I wanted it. Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!
I posted one FREE jewelry making book for Kindle for today...grab it before it's gone! (Note: you do not need to have an actual Kindle. If you have a smartphone, you can download a Kindle reader app for FREE...if all you have is a PC, you can download to your PC...and I believe there may also be a way now of completely bypassing any kind of reader app to read directly online - though please don't quote me on that, as I'm not sure. I find the PC reader to be quite decent for pattern content...since I don't own a Kindle, I can't say how well it works...but I would think a smaller screen would make patterns kind of difficult to read.)

Linsie,
You're very welcome!
A 4:5 ratio (or 5:4, depending on your gauge) would be a .80 aspect ratio. The Free Pattern Wizard creates a .75 aspect ratio, which is very close. Again, there's no exact mathematical match to it in graphics...LOL, sigh, don't ask me to explain it, because my understanding is very, very rudimentary, and while I can (somewhat) understand it, I can't explain it easily!
And the technical part
of it notwithstanding, remember, measurements aren't an exact
science when it comes to yarn, sigh, since there are so many
variables...size of yarn, tension, needle or hook size,
etc.
Perhaps there's a mid-ground to all of this...would it be possible to test a small portion of your pattern, some part of it that you're particularly worried about, to see if it's a close enough match?
HTH! I'm sorry there's not a more
concrete answer to your question, but I don't want to give you
incorrect information.
