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. Newbie here. Is there a way to download a word chart for a picture that I am beading (Peyote stitch)?
Also having a hard time downloading pictures. Practice, practice. Thank you!

Hi, lilbj.

As a matter of fact, I hope to be adding capabilities in the next couple days that will allow compressing charts onto fewer pages.

I'll be adding 11 new paper sizes.

These will be US Ansi A-E which will allow crochet/knitting charts up to 180x330 stitches on a single page!  The US Ansi paper sizes are 8 1/2x11, 11x17, 17x22, 22x34, and 34x44".  I'll post details on how to use them once I make them live.

Also, strictly to allow either magnifying or reducing the pages, I'll be introducing some of our own custom paper sizes for a very specific reason.  These paper sizes are 4.75x8.25", 8 1/2x11", 12.75x16.5", 17x22", 21.25x27.5", and 25.5x33".  I'm stopping there but can easily add more if we get requests.

This second group of paper sizes (We'll call the sizes Stitchboard 0-5) are all increments of US 8 1/2x11.  Again, I'll explain in another update post exactly how to use them.  For now I can say that the Stitchboard 1 size is 8 1/2x11", with crochet/knitting fitting up to 40 stitches across and 70 rows down on a page.  Stitchboard 0 can still be printed out as 8 1/2x11 and would then enlarge the page and fit 10 stitches across by 30 rows down.  Stitchboard 5 size printed onto 8 1/2x11 paper would shrink the chart and allow up to 130 stitches across by 240 rows down.

I should also point out that the new paper sizes work for all stitching types.  I just mentioned crochet and knitting as an example.

These 11 paper sizes are all US-based.  I'll then see what people are using in other sizes (A2, etc.) and add the ability to also magnify and reduce the charts the same way.

This may all sound technical but I'll try to simplify it in a later post in a couple days.

Hi, I'm new also, just thought I would throw this in too. Pic Monkey is a free online picture editing site, that let's you do all kinds of things with your images.
