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!  Laughing

Diamondartqueen,
Welcome! Smile
If you're using the freePatternWizard, this version of the software will only allow full cross stitches. I'm sorry to say there's no backstitching. This will likely be addressed in a later version of the software.


Ksulliv,
Sorry, I think I said that wrong! Embarassed
What I meant is that if it's a small enough piece, you might be able to get away with knitting it as is, even though your stitches will be rectangular while the cross stitch chart has square stitches.
But over a larger piece it will become more obvious. So it depends on how large your chart is, and then there's no rule of how big is too big. It's unfortunately just plain old trial and error. Frown
A Chewbacca pattern would be more difficult than, say, something abstract, because if it's abstract you wouldn't notice the skewing. But with something as recognizable as Chewbacca, that's hard to predict. Frown


Suzieq,

Welcome! Smile

The option definitely hasn't been removed. What do you show as your options in the pulldown for #7 where it says: "Pattern or Word Chart:"? It should say:
Graph Only
Word Chart Only
Graph and Word Chart

Sharon,

Welcome!  Smile

I've discussed this issue with Terry (Support) and he plans to institute a new way of sending email.  He believes this will resolve the problem with emails not showing up.  Smile

How do set the stitch count if my scarf is 225 stitches by 25 stitches ?
