New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!

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!  Laughing

I am new to Stitchboard.

I am in the process of designing a blanket to make for Christmas and use the app of the grid.
How do you determain how many stitches should be across for a throw and how many rows?

Hello,
Is it possible to tell when Stylecraft will be added? I don't live in the USA and Red Heart (for example) is very expensive and hard to come by here). It would make it much easies for me if the Stylecraft special dk pallette can be used. Would save me a lot of time thinking about and converting the colours. 

Scheepjes Colour Crafter would be a nice addition too Wink

You're so welcome, glad you found them! Smile

Kathy,

By the way, I should point out that you've done nothing wrong in creating your image.  I think the problem is simply having an image mode that allows unlimited colors and then reducing the size.

Most graphics programs will introduce a bunch of new shades when reducing/enlarging size to "feather" edges.

I am emailing two images for you to try.  These are not perfect but I'm curious to know if they work better for you.  If so, I can re-run them through Photoshop and clean them a bit more.

Let me know.

Terry

I live permanently on the road in a Matilda Bradstreet motorhome with my beloved spouse. He has given up complaining about the amount of wools and cottons I have stashed. I tend to knit and crochet dishcloths and face cloths as thank-you gifts and for raffle prizes, I make hats for friends and their children and sometimes I even manage to make clothing for myself.  We don't like the cold so we tend to stay in tropical areas in Winter. I really need to check out the cotton blends for tee-shirts etc.
