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!

hello everyone.
i would like to ask if it is possible to change the patters symbols to numbers and letters.
i am new to the site and i dont know all the features
I am trying to make a pattern out of a black and white line drawing...
Why on earth does the program add 28 colors and extra stuff to it making it IMPOSSIBLE to stitch properly?
all i want is a simple balck and white line to stitch...
What an awesome idea! I hope you share pictures of the completed projects with us!

SweetReet,
Welcome! 
No worries,
you're doing the right thing! A gauge swatch is critical when
working with an item where you need specific measurements. 
For the number
of stitches across, you need to calculate based on how many inches
across you want the project to be. Since your gauge is 5 sts per
inch, let's say you were trying to make something 50 inches wide,
so you'd multiply 5 x 50 = 250 stitches.
As
for Aida stitch count, Aida is a type of evenweave cross stitch
fabric and is of no consequence here.
The main thing
to remember is that in this version of the software, you can
determine the width of the pattern, but not the length. That will
be changed in a future version of the software. The reason we did
that originally was because we were concerned people would skew or
truncate their patterns if they gave measurements that were too
long or short.
The other thing is that it's
best to make your uploaded image the desired number of stitches
across = number of pixels before uploading it to the
freePatternWizard. Thus, if you want something that's 250 stitches
wide, it's best if you upload an image that's 250 pixels wide. This
way, the freePatternWizard doesn't have to "decide" which pixels to
leave out of the finished pattern. If you're on a Windows machine
and don't have a graphics program to do this, I can suggest two
very established, powerful and entirely free programs that can help
you.
Hope that helps and isn't confusing!

I just found this site. I've been crocheting for a few
years. I would like to attempt a picture afghan in memory of my
father that passed away in August. If successful, I would give it
to my mother and make smaller ones for my children and
grandson.
What an awesome idea! I hope you share pictures of the completed projects with us!
