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!

Yes, both Peyote and Brick did (and still) have issues. I'm close to finishing up the testing. I found 2 other problems but corrected them.
I'll be turning on the new version as soon as I get through all the tests. (There are hundreds of tests to do so it's not a quick thing but I want to finish the corrections before adding anything new.

Hi, cwcoup.
I recently added some paper sizes specifically made for fitting and printing more stitches per page.
In your case, you can reduce your page count to about 12 pages (4 across by 3 down) by specifying paper size "Stitchboard 5". This paper size will allow up to 130 standard crochet stitches across and 240 rows down.
Please note that the size of the stitches on the pages will be smaller so they may be more difficult to read.
If you have a hard time reading them, you can choose a step down from that and select paper size "Stitchboard 4" which will allow 110 standard stitches across and 200 rows down. This should print your chart in 25 pages (5 across by 5 down).
I do have an update coming which will offer another method of reducing stitch size on the paper but for now the "Stitchboard" paper sizes will also do it.
When you go to print these pages, you probably need to tell your pdf reader (or whatever program you use to print) to fit the pages onto a single page. For example, in Adobe Reader, under "Size Options", select "Fit".
Regarding checking the box in color selection, you might need to enlarge the section of the page. You should be able to click or tap inside of the little checkbox in the upper left corner of the color sample. (I just made sure it still works on mobile devices by checking my iPhone, and without enlarging it was able to click in the box and see a checkmark.) If you're having problems with this, by all means let me know what device you're using (iPhone, tablet, desktop, laptop...), what operating system (iOS, Android...), and if possible, what browser. I'll certainly look into it.

Hi! I am new here but have done cross stitch before. I
have been cleaning out stuff and discovered a project I started
probably about 20 years ago, and it just never got traction because
it was way too complex!
I am going to
abandon that project, since I am now older and even with the extra
magnification, well, it is just too hard, because the cloth is way
too dense. I think it may be 24! What was I thinking - ah, the
beauty of youth's exuberance! LOL...
So, I
am working on pulling out the very small area I had started, and
probably will freecycle the cloth to someone who can use it, and
until I can get something more manageable, I did find some sheets
of plastic canvas from the days when I was making tissue box
holders and the like - remember those days? Like maybe 30 years ago
or more?
So, my daughter's boyfriend has a
saying I think makes a really funny family slogan, and I want to
cross stitch it onto the plastic canvas for something fun to do,
and I came here to use the design tool. So, that is why I joined
and I am looking forward to being here!
