Hi, All
First, for anyone having any problems bringing up the freePatternWizard pattern creation software by using the top drop-down menu, feel free to Take This Link
Our showcase has been updated. If you've previously uploaded a showcase in the past, please check to see if it's been posted; meanwhile, if you want to submit one (or another one, if you've already posted before), feel free to do so!
Also note we now have an additional (optional) assembly page for the freePatternWizard. This is for larger pieces that have multiple pages. Much smaller patterns won't need this.
To freePatternWizard paid Premium subscribers having problems logging in:
If you're logged into your Stitchboard account (shows "Hi, name" in the upper right corner of each page), you can ignore the rest of this message.
If you're not logged into your Stitchboard account and you are a freePatternWizard paid Premium subscriber, please take this link one time to verify your subscription(s). It will also ask you to change your password. Again, you only need to do this once.
If you are not a paid Premium subscriber and are having problems logging in, try logging into the Stitchboard website. If you see an "Invalid login username or password" message, you may need to re-register at this link or by clicking the "Register" link at the top of the page. If you try re-registering and get a "duplicate email address" message, you'll need to go through the "password change" function by using this link.
To read a particular post, simply click on it!
George,
Welcome!
If you have a good image of an American flag, you could try putting it through the freePatternWizard. The formats of gif and png are best for this, jpg is not generally recommended, since the colors don't tend to stay "true," as they can get smudgy and give undesired results.
If you don't want to graph the pattern, perhaps you can get one for free...I do know Lion Brand has a freebie, but I have to warn you, the stars are sewn on:

I haven't seen anything in searches that doesn't have sewn on stars.
yeah the music video turned out fine
it doesn't cost the earth to be nice or to be kind and to share
So, I'm new to the site. I figured out how to get the pattern, but it gives me these colors at the bottom that I can't tell what it is telling me. I'd love to get the exact colors it suggests because I don't want to have to figure it out the hard way or guess. Is there a place I can go to see what exactly it is suggesting? Thanks!
You're very welcome!
1) I've upgraded you.
2) This part is a little more complex. Since you're new at it, I would say to try a small practice piece. Once you get the hang of it, then I'd say to try something larger. I'm sure you'd rather just get started, but I can relate this to how I do things...I often try starting something big first, but ultimately I give up. That's when I try something smaller. (This is what I did with bead crochet. I couldn't do it and almost gave up, but then I started working with pony beads and yarn, which accustomed me to holding the crochet hook.)
The pattern follows conventional rules; e.g., you make your starting chain with one extra for the turn. Then the first row starts with single crochets (and that's the stitch you'll be using throughout the piece). So if your pattern is 150 across, you would start at the bottom with 151 chains, then the first row would be single crochets into the chains.
