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!)

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 Kathy,

I am looking for a solution to the problem Caroline is having or similar to it. I want to make a graph from a photo, but I want the background solid. Would you be able to help me? If you could email me at lilbj48@yahoo.com that would be wonderful as I will probably forget to come back to this message when I log out!

Davina,

Welcome!  Smile

I'm not sure what you mean.  If you're referring to outputting a graph superimposed over a picture, you can technically do something close to that by choosing the "colors only" option in #7 under "Pdf;" however, if you're using an image with anything more than a few distinct colors, you won't be able to tell which color is with, since the computer can discern many different colors where the human eye can only tell a few of them apart.

This is why we recommend going with "symbols only" or "both colors and symbols" unless your image has only a few distinct colors.

Hello to all of you,

I have a suggestion for everyone wanting to make a c2c graph.

Since c2c is worked in blocks, why not try the tunisian square option to create a graph with square blocks.

I don't do the c2c graphs, so I can't guarantee, but worth a try.

Thanks to Debbie, member StitchMeKnot, we've now got a new area here for requesting beta testers.  Ultimately this general board will suffice for those who want to discuss non-stitching crafts, multi crafts, etc.  Since most crafters like to do more than one craft, this will facilitate bringing discussions of different crafts together.  Smile
