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

Welcome! Smile
In this version of the software, no, you can only specify the stitches across, not the number of rows. The reason for that is originally we were concerned people would skew or truncate their patterns, so we didn't want them to have an issue and decided to let the Wizard determine the rows/length of a pattern.
The optimal thing to do is make your original image 110 pixels across, so pixels = stitches. The number of rows is a more difficult thing to determine, because crochet isn't square; the stitches are rectangular, so the Wizard is looking more at the height the image is, so rather than attempting to go pixels = rows, it needs to look more at the aspect ratio of the image.
In a future version you'll be able to specify, but even then, the problem would be that it would likely mean designating a number would give you a skewed image if you're trying to go from a square image to a crochet pattern.
As it is now, the best thing is to experiment to get it to the correct length. You could add or subtract a blank border to get it to the correct size. I'm not positive you could get it to exactly 110 pixels, but you could likely get it close.


Yeah, I did that.  I keep getting an error "There was an error processing that image. Try again. (Error:3)"

I really want to show off what I am doing, but it won't let me.


Cali,

We've discussed this issue...thank you for letting us know! Smile Terry will check and correct those three colors and is putting a priority on scanning through the entire palette to see if he sees any other colors that need to be corrected.

That was supposed to say CAN'T, I'm sorry for the mistype.

Portia,

Wait!  Let's not give up.  I sent you an email with some info per your emailed request.

We'll see if we can get you something workable.  It really depends on the palette you're using since you're using a black and white image and need several shades of gray in yarn colors.

If you answer my email, we can take it from there.

Terry
