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!

Hello All, I have crocheted for over 50 years and always need help along the way on some patterns. I hope this group will help me with some of the graphs that I have not tried yet.Maybe I will try them again. I am from B.C. Canada and enjoy meeting friends from around the globe.
De'Andrea,
It's going so well and looks even more amazing than ever!
I'm sure you're absolutely itching to
finish. Glad you're getting there! It's hard when you get to the
end of a project and you really, really just want to be done with
it already. Does your mind keep slipping to picturing it already
done...and then the truth hits you, that it's not? 
That's what sometimes happens to
me. I can sit and dream about something being done for hours...but
that doesn't mean it's done! Sigh.
Woo hoo, I can't wait until you're all done!
Crystal,
Welcome!
The wizard really doesn't know what kind of spacing you want. When you upload an image, it's assumed you want use the image as the graph itself.
There are a couple of ways you can remedy this. One is to create your image to cover the size needed only for the ends of the scarf. You can only go with the number of stitches across for now (we have a feature in development that will let you decide how long you want the image; at the moment, it does the math for you so your image is the correct aspect ratio). Then you can apply it to each end of the scarf as you go.
The other thing is to upload (if it's not beyond the maximum number of stitches allowed) an image that has the image on each end with a long enough space in between for the stitches you don't want as part of your image, the "blank" portion. In this (and pretty much any) case, you want to be sure to first reduce your image in a graphics program so it's the size across of the total number of pixels/stitches you want going across.
Hope that helps!
Ok,
so just to clarify on how to "read" the pattern, does each rechtangle represent a stitch? And do you recomend going from the bottom up or side to side?
Paula
Melanie,
Looking forward to helping wherever I can.
Thanks.
