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

hi Terry,
Thanks for the trial. The way I see it, the program works very well. I am pleased that you have found a solution. Thank you.

StitchWitch,

Welcome!  Smile

No worries...this is one of our top priorities, as it's one of our most requested features...we're listening!  Smile

Hi guys,
I have a workaround for anyone that wants to do this before you guys integrate it into the software.  My graph looks stretched, but by my calculation it will be perfect when I crochet it.

My stitch ratio is 0.875 rather than 1.  My photo was 415 pixels wide and 500 pixels tall.  I used GIMP (free from Gimp.org) to alter my photo size.  500/0.875 = 571.  So I altered my photo to 415 pixels wide and 571 pixels tall.  I then used this stretched picture with the tunisian square crochet pattern maker.  I got a pattern that is 150 stitches wide by 207 stitches tall.  Without alteration, the pattern was 150 x 181.  207 * 0.875 = 181 so my math seems to check out.

It will be MONTHS before I have a finished pattern to double check, but I'm confident this will work.  My pattern looks funny - I'm sure when you guys get this done you will leave the picture the right size ad change the grid itself so it doesn't look funny.  But this will work for now!
