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!)

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

Lauren,
I've answered most of your questions here:
https://stitchboard.com/community/2.0/message.php?t=1802&c=21&b=176
Our software assumes you're using full cross stitches and not half cross stitches.
The software does not have a way of blending plies of different colors at this time to create custom colors.
This version of the software doesn't have a provision for outlining (backstitching) or French knots. If you're working from a photo, you probably don't want to use French knots unless you're trying to give something a certain knotty effect.
The size I explained in the link above. I'm unfortunately unable to answer that question without knowing what count fabric you're asking about, what size a standard piece of paper is for you (here in the US it's 8 1/2 x 11 inches; in Europe I believe the standard size is called A4 and I have no idea what size it is) and if you're using something like a linen, are you stitching over one or over two?
However, that said, size is a simple calculation if you're working in inch measurements. If you're using 14 count Aida cloth, 14 (for one square) x 8.5 (the width of a sheet of paper in the US) = 119 stitches across. (I don't know if European measurements are handled in inches or centimeters.)
Hope that helps and sorry if I'm not understanding your questions!


je suis heureuse de faire partie de votre communauté. je crochète depuis moins de un an et je commence à m'interresser au c2c et au block-stitch.

MBT,

Welcome! Smile

The freePatternWizard doesn't convert graphs to other graphs. Its function is to take images, such as photos or drawn artwork, and change them to graphs. So if you have, say, a drawing of a turtle, you'd take that image, upload it, and turn that into a knitting graph.

This is why you won't be able to convert a cross stitch graph. The freePatternWizard is looking at the graph lines and such, saying, "I don't know what these are, but they're obviously part of the pattern, so I'll include them!"

Hello! My name is Helen and I'm new to the Stitchboard community. I used the freePatternWizard to design my graphgan pattern (numbers and words) today. Totaly amazing! Now how many chains are needed to start my project of 150 wide x 125 high single crochet?  I want to make sure so that I don't start with the wrong number.  Many thanks.

BTW, I just deleted the photo album you created the other day...please try to re-upload the photos when you get the chance.  There's still a .5M limit, but there was another issue due to the upgrade that wasn't allowing photos to be posted...my apologies!
