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!

Hi!
I created a pattern yesterday, and selected to use the full 150 stitches allowed for registered members (non-premium). My pattern came out to 198x150. What is that, in inches/centimeters? Is it one stitch per block on the pattern? It equaled out to about 30,000 stitches. I don't want a humongous afghan, so I would like to know rough estimates so I can adjust accordingly.
Thanks!
Thank you for the kind words Sherry. I will admit, this is by far the most difficult project I've tackled yet.
I almost forgot the design pattern I created for a Christmas star in peyote this past December. On the Seed Beads And More FB group page they had a November and December beading challenge to make Christmas stars either ones from the pattern pdfs in their files or one of our own. I had made a couple of stars already the yr before and made a few from the files I gave as gifts. Then I decided to design a special one for me in the Southwest style which is what I know best and is the simpliest to create. I did it also on my BeadToll4 program, but since they don't offer star pattern grahps I created the star designs in diamond shapes and just beaded it as a complete star. I never did change it to a star graph since I know how to follow it to make it without the pattern being on the graph. Soem asked me if I would create one on a star pattern, but I declined as it would ahve had to be hand colored in and no pdf which most folks want to go by. I did tell anyone who desired could use the designs in a star or in any way they chose if they wanted. So far I ahve not seen a single star or other beaded item with my designs which is fine with me too. I do have a pdf for the diamonds I created to amke this star from.
I call this star "Walks In Spirit". It is also the name I created years ago and use for my beading I send out with any beaded items I make for folks.
Hi, my guess is that it will come out square. Sc stitches are not square, they are shorter so if your graph had come out 100 stiches by 100 rows it would be a rectangle lengthwise.
Hope this helps

Feeee,
Welcome! 
There are two
free programs I highly recommend. Both are for Windows
machines.
The first is paint.net, which is
available here:

The other is Gimp, available here:
