Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features.

Is there a certain yarn that should be used to crochet a pillow from the graph? I live in a rural area and my choices are slim, so I may have to purchase it online.
Is this cotton yarn like the Peaches and Cream? I was wondering how well a blanket made of 100% cotton would work up. And how about washing and drying? does it come out nice and soft? I had this discussion with someone and she had never made a 100% cotton blanket because she thought it would be too heavy.
Thank you so much!
Hello Pdevine15
Using color pictures we must considerer the quality, light and time. All these give to the picture shadows and color patinas and the program read them as colors.
Another consideration is the distance, when we see our .gif pattern so close we can see all the colors individualy, but if you take some distance and look at the .gif pattern we can see a complete picture.
For example, when you see some painting from the distance you can see a master piece, if you are close to the picture maybe you see just dots and dashes.
Before the wizzard magic, i sugest you take your picture with a professional digital designer and ask him for to clean the picture.
As I mentioned, I am new to this site.
I have just recently gotten into beading, and need some advice/help on where to start, what I need, patterns, ect ect....
Ideas?

Queenphalange,
Welcome! 
Although I've
seen beginners start with large, complex projects, my first
instinct is always to have people start with smaller ones. As a
beginner, you want to learn how to read the pattern and handle your
project. I feel that an advanced project may not get you the
earlier steps you need for learning. I'm not saying you should hold
off forever, but perhaps trying a simple kit or two would be
helpful before starting something much larger.
I do think your idea of a SpiderMan cross stitch is
wonderful, so perhaps you could still plan it out while working a
smaller kit first? 
You also have a
lovely day or night!

So my 3 year old were jealuos of his brothers baby blanket.
He said that he would like one too.. So now I am working on a
blanket for him as well..
The blanket is made of 100% cotton.. My boy chose the colours, since he is the one who wants it in the first place..
