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!
How about changing the PDF after it is generated and then selling it. Like replacing this first page or using a different font for labels? Can I still sell it?
Love this program btw!
Welcome!
My best advice is to start small...I know, small graphs aren't as appealing, but it's good practice to start small and to see what graph crochet is like before embarking on a huge project that may end up daunting. I know that I don't like to start small, but I always regret it when I don't, like when I tried bead crochet and had so much trouble with the extra step of holding the beads, I almost gave up! But that's when I took a step back and started small...LOL, or big, in this case
, with a very small, simple pattern and pony
beads. It worked! Sorry I'm new, where do you find the beading section?
Hi, katz61 and barb7977!
Sorry about the delay. I just upgraded both of your accounts so you can now create larger patterns.

Christine,
Welcome!
Ask any questions you'd like...we're here to help.
The freePatternWizard creates a crochet pattern in symbols or words (or both). I'm not sure if the problem you're having is that you can't find where to set it to words or something else, so I'll answer your question on that basis.
In the freePatternWizard, first of all, make sure you've provided your image, selected crochet in #2 and in #3 select your stitch type (for regular crochet with single crochets, that would be "standard").
In #5, my suggestion is to choose the "Stitchboard Basic Palette." If you choose the "Stitchboard Full Palette," there are about a gazillion colors, and you won't be able to match them to shades of yarn. The "basic" palette includes about 3 of each of the basic colors (light, medium and dark) and a few incidental colors not included in that. Yarn manufacturers don't generally provide a lot of options color-wise, because they don't want to get stuck with hundreds of colors that might sell only a skein or two per month, so the "basic" palette was created with that in mind.
In #7, make sure you're logged in and then the default of "Pattern in PDF format" should already be chosen for you. You can then make sure the choice to the right of that says "Symbols only." Then to the right of PDF Paper Size is the critical choice: "Pattern or Word Chart," and your choice would be "Pattern and Word Chart" so you would get both the graph and the chart written out in words.
Hope that helps!
