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

Hi, I'm new here, I've been crocheting for a few years now and want to try a grapha, on the explanation it says standard stitch, what is the standard stitch? Single crochet? And can you make it with c2c? Thx in advance 

The way the freePatternWizard works is by taking your desired stitch count and then optimizing your photo or artwork to work for that stitch count.  If you were to designate a row count, then undoubtedly your design would be skewed, either too elongated or too short.

If you have an image that you can't get to the right size, the suggestion I have is to add borders in a graphics program.  You'll probably have to fiddle with the image until you get it to look the way you want it, but this way your design won't be skewed.  Especially with something that is 225 stitches x 25 rows, that's really not a lot of rows to deal with.  You may even find that you simply can't make the image short enough for only 25 rows, so you may have to rethink your choice of materials, the number of rows in your image or the image you're using to get your desired result.

may I please be upgraded to 300

Greenjesse (what a great name!),

Welcome!  So glad you're finding the freePatternWizard helpful!  Smile

Tunisian crochet is a lot of fun...I think you'll like it!  Filet is definitely interesting...and not difficult at all.  Smile  C2C is fun, too...I recently made a set of dishcloths with the c2c technique.  Knooking is something I haven't tried, but it looks fascinating!  Smile  I've (so far) only knit with conventional knitting needles.

So do you sell crocheted items in your Etsy shop?

Awww, how cool that you can make cute crocheted items for your girls!  Kiss

Do you have any pics of your rhombus afghan to make us all drool?  Wink  That sounds interesting...and I completely agree, you can never have too many afghans!  Kiss

Astrid,

Woo hoo, glad you were able to get to the photo albums!  Kiss  I'll have to check out what you've posted...and if you haven't posted anything yet, will be looking forward to seeing your work!  Kiss

By all means, if you want me to look at your xls file, I'll be very happy to do that.  Kiss  Just let me know and I'll give you an email address to send it to (because you can't send files through here).

30 sts x 30 rows really is perfect!  Kiss  Now you can choose the "square" setting for Tunisian!

Hope your soccer team is doing very well...enjoy!  Kiss
