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!

momof6orso,
Welcome!
If you're talking about a pattern in the mall, you have to click on it, add it to the cart and then check out.
I also am working on a set of blankets for my 2 girls. I need 245 stiches across by 180 rows down. How does one upgrade to premium. Also, this isnt my first try at converting pictures to patterns and your program by far is the easiest i have found so far. Thank you guys for coming up with this, you're lifesavers!

Janet,
When working from a chart
you work bottom to top, right to left, then left to right, in
conventional chart format. This is why the numbering starts from
the bottom and not the top. You'll also notice the numbers start
from the side where you would start; odd rows start from the right,
evens start from the left. This represents the way you would
crochet. Though you're not literally
working from left to right for the even rows, when you flip the
work over to work each even or "return" row, you're crocheting the
side that goes left to right, though all you see when you're
working is right to left, as you would normally see a project that
you're working in rows. So when you get to the evens in a chart,
you'll reverse your reading of the chart to start at the side where
the number is, to keep your pattern from having every other row
going the wrong way.
The numbering of your
crocheting starts with the first single crochet row. It is not
advisable to add an extra row at the beginning or your numbering
will be off completely and this will get very, very confusing,
potentially messing up your pattern because you'll be constantly
trying to figure out which row you're really on and in which
direction you should be working. If you absolutely feel a need to
add an extra row for some reason, such as a border, I would suggest
adding it after you're done with the chart.
Feeee,
Welcome!
There are two
free programs I highly recommend. Both are for Windows
machines.
The first is paint.net, which is
available here:

The other is Gimp, available here:

hsfarm,
Welcome!
We've done our
best to make the freePatternWizard as simple as possible to use.
Please try it out...for anyone, there is always a free version
available, and since you're a member of this site, you have the
most free capabilities available (as opposed to people who have
never joined this site).
As for an Alabama
blanket, do you have an image of the outline of the state available
to you? An image is what you'll need to upload
to the freePatternWizard.
