site news and information

Hi, All

First, for anyone having any problems bringing up the freePatternWizard pattern creation software by using the top drop-down menu, feel free to Take This Link


Our showcase has been updated. If you've previously uploaded a showcase in the past, please check to see if it's been posted; meanwhile, if you want to submit one (or another one, if you've already posted before), feel free to do so!


Also note we now have an additional (optional) assembly page for the freePatternWizard. This is for larger pieces that have multiple pages. Much smaller patterns won't need this.


To freePatternWizard paid Premium subscribers having problems logging in:

If you're logged into your Stitchboard account (shows "Hi, name" in the upper right corner of each page), you can ignore the rest of this message.

If you're not logged into your Stitchboard account and you are a freePatternWizard paid Premium subscriber, please take this link one time to verify your subscription(s). It will also ask you to change your password. Again, you only need to do this once.

If you are not a paid Premium subscriber and are having problems logging in, try logging into the Stitchboard website. If you see an "Invalid login username or password" message, you may need to re-register at this link or by clicking the "Register" link at the top of the page. If you try re-registering and get a "duplicate email address" message, you'll need to go through the "password change" function by using this link.

I have created a pattern and am having trouble finding a site that sells all the needed bead colors for Miyuki beads.  I'm open to delica or seed beads, that were suggested when I created the pattern. TIA! Marie

Stitchpunk,
Welcome! Smile What a great name! Kiss
If you're crocheting, the only way to determine this is with (I'm so sorry to say it!)...math. Surprised I know, this plagues all of us! Wink
First, you'll need to make a gauge swatch (I don't know many people who like making those!), using your chosen hook and fiber. This will tell you how many stitches and rows per inch you'll have.
Once you know that number, you can divide the number of stitches per inch into the width and the number of rows per inch into the height. That will tell you how large your crocheted piece will turn out. Kiss
If you're knitting, there's a similar procedure. Smile


new here so please bear with me.  I ordered a free cross stitch pattern and got the confirmation.   now, where do I find the actual pattern so I can print it out or save to my desktop for future reference?

First of all hi everyone ., it's good to be here, I'm 35 from Essex in England and a mummy to 4 beautiful children, I'm a very keen crocheter and have completed many tasks from baby clothes cardigans bonnets Afghan/ blankets etc but never have I ever tried graph crochet .... now my youngest sister has just gave birth to my niece ... was looking for a nice unusual gift to crochet for my sister in my free time ... accidentally but very gratefully came across this site... and I'm loving what I have seen so far! I've decided to attempt to do an affhan/blanket using my nieces photo. I've created a pattern with the magical tool here (oh my god it's amazing!!!) but now I'm stuck lol ... I'm unsure on what size hook & yarn to use to get a decent size afghan once finished ... any help would be very much appreciated ... Thankyou in advance ... nicola x

Kimtchon,

This is another feature we have in development.  For now, the best thing to do is make a swatch with your desired yarn and hook (assuming you're crocheting), then rip it out to get an appoximation of how much yarn your stitches use.  From there, you can calculate based on number of stitches.  Smile
