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!
Hi thanks for the tips I know your right try a smaller project first, so much I want to try but baby steps eh!
Hi, Calipage, and thanks for subscribing to the freePatternWizard.
Yes this has probably been resolved. Could you please let me know what stitch you're using in beading (peyote, brick...)? Brick and Peyote have some intermittent color issues that will be corrected in the version coming soon.
I also could make this upcoming version available to you to see if this is a bug that's been fixed. Let me know if you want to try this.
If you're getting only black and white, I'm wondering if the problem is something else other than a program bug. If you'd be willing, I would also be interested in getting a copy of the image you're using as well as the colors you're choosing so I can try it here. If I duplicate the problem, I can either let you know settings I use to get it working, test it in the next version myself, or if it's a program bug, fix it right away.
So please let me know if you'd be willing to email me an image with which you're having problems. I'll try to work with you.

Hello Ladies ~
I re-ran the pattern. I'm on row 68 and so far things are going great! I thank you so much for the left-hand option. It certainly makes this easier!
My goal is to be done by my grandson's birthday - April 1st -- wish me luck

Filet Crochet has been one of our most requested features and we've had a button showing for a long time. We just added this new feature and as we've been telling people, it's the newest Premier Feature.
This feature allows you to upload a drawing or graphic image and create your own filet crochet charts. You can turn on borders is you like, select turning chain count, and, as with other stitches, adjust your image with many optional tools. For those new here, the main freePatternWizard page is here.
Just a quick rundown...
Everyone subscribed to "All Premier Features" will already be able to access this new feature! Otherwise, when you subscribe to the Filet Crochet feature, you can then click on the "filet" button in section 3. When you do, section 5 will change to the following image:
Note the new options:
Borders lets you have the system automatically include top/bottom and/or left/right borders. You can also have it either count or not count the borders in your chart. So if you set it to not count borders and specify 40 blocks across and have left and right borders turned on, it would make a chart 42 blocks across. Telling it to count the borders would result in a chart that's 40 blocks across including the borders.
You can also set your desired turning chain count – either 2 chain or 3 chain. This will also affect the foundation starting chain count (explained in a moment).
Instead of "stitch" counts on the chart, it will now show "block" counts as shown below (note that some of the special formatting you see on the pdf cover page is made with the "Private Label (Custom) pdf Premier feature):
Next, on the cover sheet below the chart thumbnail image is a key showing that the black (filled-in) boxes are double crochet blocks and the others are open blocks. After this is information about the number of stitches that make up the foundation starting chain. A sample is below:
One other change is even row counts are now on the left and odds on the right. (For you left-handed stitchers, read this message about a new feature just added for you!
):
ALSO, we added filet default settings to the right "Settings" tab so you can make it always do borders or whatever when you select filet. These settings will only show if you have subscribed to the filet Premier feature.
We're looking for your input and please let us know what else you'd like! We're on a roll! Oh, yeah, and please subscribe to the filet feature!
