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!  Laughing

Horsesense,
Welcome! Smile
I'll alert Terry (Support) to your message. I'm not really sure of what's going on...this sounds like a technical issue.


Lelie,

Welcome! Smile

I'm not sure exactly what's happening, so please bear with me while I ask some questions. Smile Are you saying there is a palette that has 9 blue shades and the result is that since the freePatternWizard doesn't have a 10th blue, it's choosing brown instead? Or is there a blue that's actually missing from the palette? Which palette are you using? Or is the problem that there's a color in the palette you're selecting, but the freePatternWizard still isn't choosing it?

Thanks in advance! Smile

Hi, anna068.

Are you generating the pattern on the screen or pdf?  The left-most button when looking at a screen pattern should be to "Download".

If you're talking about with a .pdf, as long as you have "Pattern in .pdf format" set in section 7, you should have the option of "Show .pdf pattern on screen", "Download pattern", and "Email pattern to myself".  These options should be right below the "Paper Size" line in section 7.

I just did a quick check in beading, crochet, cross stitch, and knitting and see the download option in all categories.  I always say that as I continue to add and change the program I may have introduced a bug but I do show the download option on my end.

If you have the pdf setting in section 7, please also let me know the stitch category in section 2 and all your settings in section 7 and I'll look into it.

Terry

Caytie,

No worries - it's easy!  Smile  Just go to the "patterns" tab on the menu, choose "create a pattern," choose the image you're going to use from your computer, and then since you're going to crochet it, in 5a I would change "Stitchboard Full Palette" to "Stitchboard Basic Palette."  The full palette is not very useful for crocheting, as generally only basic colors are available from yarn manufacturers.  The Basic palette, though, uses a minimum number of colors.

I would definitely suggest output to PDF, and then you can print it out at your convenience.  Smile

I posted three FREE knitting patterns for Kindle for today...grab them before they're 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.)
