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!

I have set the desired number of stitches at 73, the graph produces that, but the graph is showing 170plus rows, whereas I need only 92 rows. I would appreciate some help in achieving the desired number of rows.
Do these instruction work for printing on a mac laptop?
Thanks for allowing me to join the group. I am in need of finding someone who makes counted cross stitch graphs from photographs. I have stitched our three children and three of our grandchildren, have three more grands that I wouild love to be able to stitch. However, where I was getting my graphs has gone out of business. I am hoping to find someone who still does this service. Thanks for any help anyone may have to offer. I live in North Carolina.
msmhon,
Welcome!
The stitches are represented as wide and short rather than square because crochet stitches are wider than they are tall. We've been discussing the possibility of making the numbers more sensitive to exact gauge, but we originally chose a standard shape for a single crochet.
The reason we call it "standard" rather than single crochet is because the same stitch is called a double crochet in the UK. Our terms for that may change in the future, but to avoid confusion we originally addressed the issue by calling it standard.
Thank you very much for your quick and nice answers!
I'm going to give it a try and if not working in my Mozilla, I will try in another browser.
The download button I'm talking about is the one on the left above your pattern when you see it
