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!

Shaleigh,
Thank you for posting
such awesome pictures! It's looking great already...and that's
a fantastic idea, to highlight the parts you've already done.
Especially with something so large, you need to know where you've
already worked.
I much prefer stitching
without a hoop. It was likewise odd for me, too, when I first
started without one, but eventually it became second nature and was
kind of freeing to work sans a hoop!
Please feel free
to keep posting pictures of your progress...it's so nice to follow
along with you!
Ksulliv,
Sorry, I think I said
that wrong!
What I
meant is that if it's a small enough piece, you might be able to
get away with knitting it as is, even though your stitches will be
rectangular while the cross stitch chart has square
stitches.
But over a larger piece it will
become more obvious. So it depends on how large your chart is, and
then there's no rule of how big is too big. It's unfortunately just
plain old trial and error.
A Chewbacca
pattern would be more difficult than, say, something abstract,
because if it's abstract you wouldn't notice the skewing. But with
something as recognizable as Chewbacca, that's hard to predict.
