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 and thanks for using the program!

There are many possible causes for this but the most common two causes are:
  1. When using a large image and having the program shrink it down substantially, you can get a lot of additional shades and colors.
  2. When using a compressed image like a .jpg file, the program will see all the compression pixels and try to use some of these shades and colors in the final pattern.

If you can start with a very small image that's in a non-compressed format (like .gif) it will work much better.

You can also try adjusting Color Sensitivity in section 8 to a higher number.  This will cause the program to combine some shades into single colors.

You can also try setting section 5c to a certain number of colors and the program will combine shades and closest colors to reduce the final number of colors to whatever you tell it.

One other setting you might try is to select 5b and give it the exact colors you want in your final pattern.  It will then try to match these given colors and reduce the number in the pattern.

Of all these, the best solution would be to use a smaller un-compressed image (.gif) with a limited number of colors.

Let me know if this helps.

C2C is still in our plans, but I'm sorry to say it's not available yet.


Cannot get my pattern. Says error 500

Tribble,

I had the biggest crushes on some of the original series characters!  For a while, it was Spock...Checkov...Bones...they were so unique!

The Voyage Home was my favorite original series movie.  Loved the humor in that one!

I never got much into Voyager.  Some of the shows were on at times when I just couldn't watch them.  Even today I haven't seen much Voyager or DS9, and there are probably still some episodes of Next Gen I've never seen, though it's still my fave.

One of my oldest, dearest friends is related to Rom (Max Grodenchik) from DS9.  Smile  For a long time she ran his fan club.
