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!

Sharon,
I just made a change that relates to pattern emails. Would you please try it again and see if you're now receiving the patterns?
Thanks for the input.

Welcome!
So glad you found us!
Please excuse me if I'm misunderstanding...the first thought that comes to mind is how large of an image you're trying to use. Even if it's as small as 100 x 100, your image will turn into blobs if you try to size it down as small as 15 x 15 blocks, using one square of color as a full block. If I've misunderstood and you're talking about each block being 15 x 15 cm, that's dependent on your gauge; the fiber you're using and the size crochet hook will give you your exact stitch by row measurements if you make a gauge swatch.
As for filet crochet, that feature is coming, but as yet we have no set date for when it will be available.
If you do want to size something down to 15 x 15 blocks, your image would have to be very, very small and simple to start with. If you look around at filet crochet patterns, unless they're very large, they're usually pretty simple. Even larger filet pieces are generally made in one color, with blocks of stitches or no stitches at all, unlike graphghans, which are individual stitches.
It's not impossible to do what I think you want to do, but my guess is the image you're working from would have to be greatly simplified and converted to only one color (e.g., technically two colors, for the squares with stitches and the squares without).
Hope that helps!
You're very welcome!
I posted one FREE crochet book for Kindle for today...grab it before it's gone! (Note: you do not need to have an actual Kindle. If you have a smartphone, you can download a Kindle reader app for FREE...if all you have is a PC, you can download to your PC...and I believe there may also be a way now of completely bypassing any kind of reader app to read directly online - though please don't quote me on that, as I'm not sure. I find the PC reader to be quite decent for pattern content...since I don't own a Kindle, I can't say how well it works...but I would think a smaller screen would make patterns kind of difficult to read.)

Pokedexter,

useful!

useful!No worries, the artwork box is not
functional for anyone and hasn't been for a while now, so you
didn't do anything at all wrong.
