site news and information

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.

Dskea,
Welcome! Smile
The freePatternWizard was originally set up to keep people from skewing their patterns, which is the reason for the lack of a choice of the number of rows when creating patterns. It takes the number of stitches across and creates a suitable length pattern to best fit with your uploaded image and chosen size.
We do have a version where one can enter the number of rows you want in addition to stitches; however, please keep in mind that it will likely change the aspect ratio, so something might look "off" because it's stretched or narrowed.
If you're interested, we could make this option available to you.
If not, there are other ways to keep within the correct aspect ratio, by adding borders to fool the freePatternWizard into creating the correct number of rows. This unfortunately does require experimenting to get the correct size; I've done this and it's not an exact science.
If you'd prefer to add borders and you're on a Windows PC but you don't have a graphics program, there are two I can suggest that are free, have been around for ages and are quite powerful. (The only thing is, I can't tell you how to use them, as I'm personally using - seriously - a program that was released in 1998, lol.)


I mainly write fiction-fantasy and sci-fi, but leaning more toward fantasy. The books I have published are vampire themed though...lol. LOVE it that I have met another geek so soon!!! Once I get past the background and into the picture part of them I will post them in the WIP. I am so glad to be here and thank you for the warm welcome!!

nicky didn't kick him hard enough to cause damage i wouldn't really call it a kick either more of a tap with the foot 

Neave,

Woo hoo, then I want to teach you!  Kiss  It's easier for me to teach right-handed people.  I once tried to learn left-handed crochet to teach it to other lefties and couldn't do it.  But it's a breeze for me to teach right-handed people.  Kiss

Welcome!  Smile

I can certainly relate to wanting to meet with people in person...I adore my online friends, but wish they lived close by so we could get together in person for the three Cs - coffee, conversation and crafting!  Smile

Feel free to share photos of your work...not just crochet...paper crafts, polymer clay is wonderful, and if you check out the photo albums, you'll see some gorgeous polyclay items made by one of my dear friends!  Kiss  Would love to see your creations...we love to drool!  Wink
