New! Caron One Pound, Caron Simply Soft and Herrschners 2-Ply Afghan palettes - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
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!

Kathy,
I do have a comment and 2 questions.
First, I always suggest using a pre-sized image that ideally is the number of pixels across that matches the desired number of stitches across. Sending an image that's 4000 pixels across and having the program reduce it to a much smaller figure will certainly introduce unwanted colors. This is just a byproduct of re-sizing. So if you want your pattern to be 300 stitches across, ideally re-size your image to 300 pixels across before sending it to the PatternWizard. This also allows you to be sure the image you send is as clean as possible.
One question is whether you're manually selecting the desired colors. The update I'll be turning on soon corrects a problem relating to manual colors.
My other question is what type of image are you sending to the program? (.jpg, .gif, etc.)

Dennaew,
Welcome!
At this time editing functions are in development and aren't yet available. If what you're trying to add isn't in your original image, you won't be able to add it later on in this particular version of the software. Because the editing functions need to be rigorously tested, I'm sorry to say I can't give a specific date as to when they'll be ready.
Hi, Terry,
Great, had missed that post you made back then about the subject.
All is fine then.
Thank you
Sherry,
Right?
And especially in these hard
times, it must be very hard to sell those items that are less in
the mainstream.
I, too, would love to see them expand the Soft collection...I'd like to see it in our local Walmart!
Yes, and I can't even get the One Pounder, just the Super Saver. Unfortunately, some of those colors are no longer carried in our local Walmart. It's still the easiest place to go for yarns...everything else is so much more trouble.
I posted two FREE knitting patterns for Kindle for today...grab them before they're gone! (Note: you do not need to have an actual Kindle. If you have a smartphone, you can download a Kindle reader app for FREE...if all you have is a PC, you can download to your PC...and I believe there may also be a way now of completely bypassing any kind of reader app to read directly online - though please don't quote me on that, as I'm not sure. I find the PC reader to be quite decent for pattern content...since I don't own a Kindle, I can't say how well it works...but I would think a smaller screen would make patterns kind of difficult to read.)
