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!

Hello
I'm Anjanette from Louisville.
Hi,
Here are a couple links that discuss how to fit more stitches on a page:
https://stitchboard.com/community/2.0/message.php?t=1326&c=23&b=199
and
https://stitchboard.com/community/2.0/message.php?t=1325&c=23&b=199
I do see options to get up to 130x240 or 180x330 on one page. If you do shrink it down, I think 200x200 might be too small to read on one page. If a couple pages are ok, then the above links might help.
Basically the linked information tells you about changing the paper size which will automatically place more stitches per page. One of the links also tells how to change print settings to shrink it down.
Let me know if you have questions and we'll try to help.

Hello everyone. My name is Kristy, I am 39 years old, I have been married to my wonderful husband for almost 16 years and we have two boys, they are 12 and 10. I started crocheting a few years ago, self taught/youtube taught. I love to do blankets mainly, need to venture to other things. I am going to be attempting some C2C graphgan's for Christmas presents so the "wizard" has helped me a lot already. I am looking forward to navigating around this site more to see what else it has to offer. Happy Crocheting!!!
Debbie,
Thank you for posting about your new tutorial!
I read it and it's really
quite clear and IMO doesn't need a video. While I love videos, they can
also take up a lot of time, and sometimes I think we're too
dependent on videos for things that can be easily
explained. (I recently found a great video tutorial for
something I needed, and now that I know how it works, I have a nice
one-page cheat sheet that does the same thing as that 10 minute or
whatever length video!)
I love the way you've explained about swatching. Something of which many of us are guilty of not wanting to do
, but it's really
so important. Nobody wants
to end up with a doll item, LOL, and nobody wants to make something
that would fit the Jolly Green Giant (or perhaps these days it
would be Hagrid, LOL)!
Completely hearing you about the rolling of the ends! I've been in the middle of writing a cowl/infinity scarf pattern for a while...the first time I started, the ends rolled. The second time they didn't (on purpose). I ended up liking the rolled ends better! Sometimes it can look good, despite how we're "supposed" to keep everything flat with ribbing or garter stitch.
I can see how this would relate directly to crocheting a cowl as well. In order to crochet, one still should swatch first. So really, this tutorial is quite helpful for knitters and crocheters alike!
Thank you again for posting!

Welcome! 
I know there's
an ongoing problem having to do with colors, so I've alerted Terry
who does our support.
