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

Alison,
Welcome! Smile
A later version of our software will offer the ability to start from scratch with a blank graph; I'm very sorry to say that we don't offer the ability to do that at the moment. For now, our software exclusively offers the ability to make patterns from digital images only.
That said, it's not impossible, and here's what you may want to do...if you have access to a computer. (It may also be possible to use a mobile device; I just don't know enough about mobile device graphics programs, as I personally do all graphics work on computer.) Using a computer, you could "draw" your pattern as boxes in a graphics program by using a transparent grid as only a guide, saving your work in a png or tif format, and then using the resulting image here either to output as a black and white cross stitch (for a square grid) or a filet pattern. (The filet pattern is technically for filet crochet, but as it depicts blank or filled squares, that should work for normal or bobble. And, like cross stitch, it's square.)
Hope that helps! If anything is unclear, please let me know, or if you have more questions. And if you do have computer access but not a graphics program, there are two excellent, powerful programs that are free and highly recommended.


Are the charts generated here compatible with the Pattern Keeper app? 
Thank you!

Angela

Molly,
You're so welcome! Kiss
IMO there's room for all levels of patterns out there! Some like advanced patterns to have a challenge, some like simpler patterns. I personally enjoy a challenge...at least when I have time! Wink


Hello,

I have a jpeg image I want to use on a  pair of handwarmers. So, the image would be on the back of the hand when completed. I'm not sure if the Pattern Wizard does that. The handwarmers would be knit. The image may be to large to shrink to the amount of sts, I'm just not sure if this is possilbe or if I'm explaining it very well. 

I tried the wizard but it just displayed a blank page.

I enjoyed using the pattern wizzard for the first time.  Was able to transfer a jpg of giraffes into a 24 month sweatern pattern.

QUESTION:  Although the Wizard pattern asks for your stitch width, it does not allow you to input the vertail length.  Am I missing something
