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!)

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

Pondwater,
Welcome! Smile
There is an option in step #6 for number of stitches, which is set to default to 80. Change that 80 to the number of stitches across that you want. For example, if you want 20 stitches, you'd change 80 to 20. 
HTH! Smile


Hi, Penny and welcome!

Here are a couple ideas.

1. Are you allowing it to select from all colors (section 5b and 5c) or are you selecting your colors manually (5b)?

2. Is there a lot of white in your image?  Is the image extremely small?  Here's a hint.  If there are only a small number of white areas in your image, the program may not use white in the pattern.  To correct this, try lowering the "Color Sensitivity" in section 8.  The lower this setting, the more different colors will be in the final pattern.  So, for example, the only white in your image is your teeth and they're relatively small in the image, a Color Sensitivity of 20 would probably not show white teeth, and actually choose another color closest to white that is more abundant in your image.  This could even make teeth green or gray or whatever.  Surprised  If you then lowered the Color Sensitivity to 10, the teeth might come out white.  If this setting is related to why the teeth don't come out white, try lowering the setting gradually until it works.  If you just use a Color Sensitivity of 1 all the time, there will be too many colors in your patterns.

Let me know if this helps.  I have a couple other ideas.  I'm also going to start enabling some of my new fixes and updates very soon but your issue is probably not a problem with the program.  I'm guessing it can be fixed with settings.  I'm also hoping to get to the helper videos that will go through all the settings.  This has been on hold until I catch up a bit but I should have more and more time beginning later this month.

Hi. I am trying to upload a pic for a graphgan of a white tiger worked with Tunisian crochet. However am having problems with the stitch wizard program as it will not upload my pic that is under 5mb. Any help provided will be greatly appreciated.

Stitchboard Admin, the pattern is for free on Ravelry.com. just search for Northern Lights shawl and you'll see it there. I'm sorry that I couldnn't provide a link, still problems with the computer.


StitchMeKnot, yes this is the pattern, and I have since then found written out instructions by some one else, but I thank you for your help.

I found this if it might help ...
