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.

Welcome! Smile
In this version of the software, no, you can only specify the stitches across, not the number of rows. The reason for that is originally we were concerned people would skew or truncate their patterns, so we didn't want them to have an issue and decided to let the Wizard determine the rows/length of a pattern.
The optimal thing to do is make your original image 110 pixels across, so pixels = stitches. The number of rows is a more difficult thing to determine, because crochet isn't square; the stitches are rectangular, so the Wizard is looking more at the height the image is, so rather than attempting to go pixels = rows, it needs to look more at the aspect ratio of the image.
In a future version you'll be able to specify, but even then, the problem would be that it would likely mean designating a number would give you a skewed image if you're trying to go from a square image to a crochet pattern.
As it is now, the best thing is to experiment to get it to the correct length. You could add or subtract a blank border to get it to the correct size. I'm not positive you could get it to exactly 110 pixels, but you could likely get it close.


Thank you! I had seen Kreinik mentioned as an alternative. Will definitely check it out. The thing is I have no idea what its supposed to look like, the original floss that is. Was hoping someone would be able to give me an idea.

Melanie, 

He really loves it.. The problem is now his little brother :p haha..
He ofc wants to have something too - wich I fully understand, but he wants it in this instant.. He'll have to wait for his birthday to get something this big.. I really hate stitching the parts together.. :p  

Melanie,

I can draw a bit.. But we have these overhead projectors (if you know what they are). You simply put something in it, that is printed on transparent plastic, and they you turn the maschine on, and you will now see the pattern on your wall.. You can now simply draw after the shadows that the maschine is casting.. Cheesy


Lavender is a beautiful color.. I wouldn't dare paint an entire room in that color (but only because I would be afraid I wanted to change it shortly after)..

I'm not in to the almost white, but not white colors either.. They all look the same.. o.O

Oh come on,  we both know it's your biggest dream.. A brothel like room in your house.. :p You can even complete the look by installing red lamps and so on :p LOOOOOL


Oh the dark color in the bedroom.. My mother has this beautiful, almost black, dark gray in her bedroom.. All white furniture.. I love it..
The room gets a lot of natural light, so it doesn't seem dark dark, if you know what I mean..


Glad you like the sweaters.. They are all knitted by my mother Smiley
I have a ton more, but the boys grew out of them..
She made one with a dachshund going all around the waist once.. Super cute.. Cheesy

ASPowell,

I'm guessing you're inquiring about making larger patterns, not commenting on someone else's request?  Smile

As of November 1, 2015, the 300 stitches has now become a premier service, with the introductory price of $2.99* for a year.

You can read about it here:
/community/2.0/message.php?t=1096&c=1&b=29

After our beta test concluded, we were going to simply do away with the 300 stitch option, but when we realized it was popular and people found this a good intermediate step, we reinstated it as originally planned upon completion of the beta test - as a premier feature.

Here is the subscription area, where you can read more about this feature:
/pages/pattern/subscribe.php
