Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features.

Hello, I am very fond of this site and use it often. However, i have never be able to check the "artwork box", instead stuck with gradual tones at all times. How do I fix this?
I just sent you an email. I look forward to trying them out.
I was wondering if anyone can help me i have not any money for christmas and i want to make something special for my mum as my farther passed away and i want to make her this but i am having trouble making this into a sc graph............. i want to change the lettering into black and the back ground all one colour .....so sorry for the lack of money as my dad didnt have insurence so had to pay for funeral thank you soo much for your help
Hi tandykins,
That issue with .jpgs was my first idea. One question I do have is how you created the .gif and .png images. By loading a .jpg and saving it as a .gif or .png still leaves in the "noise".
The first thing I do to look for a possible cause is to use a paint program and enlarge the image a lot. Often you can see other colors in what should be black lines. I've even seen black and white images with a lot of colors that show up when they're enlarged.
I'm willing to look at your original image (if you don't mind) and see if I can see a cause. I could then also run it through the program and see what results I get.
If you don't mind sending me an image with which you're having problems, let me know and I'll send you an email. You can then reply and attach your image.
I also have some testing to do for two other users. I'll be finishing up two projects over the next few days and will be back to testing and updating.
So let me know if it's ok for me to look at your image with the program and I'll see what's causing this.

Hi,
When you reach the end of the row, you pull up a loop in the last stitch, the you pull another loop through the one you just pulled up (ch 1) before starting your return. Then yarn over and pull through the ch and your first return stitch.
If you don't put that "extra ch" there, your piece will decrease by one stitch.
One more note about the word chart, at the beginning of your row, count your first stitch. So you'll actually start your count with 2.
I find the word charts are much easier than the graph.
Hope this helps.
