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!

bkrizo,
Welcome!
The freePatternWizard will adjust the length of any image you give it to keep your pattern's image from skewing. Also: the crochet stitch (or knit stitch) is unlikely to be perfectly square. If you're attempting to make a 60 x 60 pillow, it probably will be shorter in one direction than another, depending on the stitch you're using.
You could experiment by adding borders to your image (using a graphics program) and seeing if you can get more optimal results that way, where the program makes the pattern longer or wider, though it's doubtful with a rectangular stitch that you're going to have something exactly 60 x 60 stitches.
Could I get the upgrade?
I posted five FREE soap making books 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.)

Thank you, Melanie! I feel much better today. I am not sure what caused the headaches. The doc thinks it could be a virus... Thank God it has only been 2 days where it was really really bad. I think the time off the office helps a lot, maybe it is only something psychological...
Good job with the jack! Isn't it great when we can fool them so they are really surprised?
Hope the yarn comes soon!

Patricia,
Welcome! 

I'm sorry to
say the freePatternWizard can't take a finished pattern and turn it
into a chart.
All the program can do is make
patterns in word or graph form from original images. I've done some
searches, but have never found anything that takes word charts and
converts them. All of the matches are for programs that will turn
an original image into a chart or word pattern, or tutorials on how
to create your own word pattern.

sorry you're having problems with those word charts. Perhaps you
could contact the original designer(s) and ask if there are graphs
available instead of word charts?
