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.

That is so pretty!  I love the colors.

Rose,
Welcome! Smile
As yours is the first and only request we've ever had for mosaic crochet, I'm sorry to say we don't have instructions for this technique. I'm not sure how popular it would be, as it's (in my opinion) kind of a difficult technique to explain, not as simple as "change color from color A to color B." It's very beautiful, though!
If we do get more requests for it, we'll be certain to consider adding it in the future. Smile


Pat,

Welcome! Smile

No worries...you're not doing anything wrong!

You could use the freePatternWizard to make bracelet patterns if you work with a small enough image. If you're going to start with a large image, though, you're correct, the patterns would be much too large.

Depending on your image, you could try reducing it in a graphics program (the freePatternWizard isn't a graphics program, so it's really best to use a proper graphics program to resize your image first) to the width you want (e.g., stitches across) and an approximate height. In the current version of the freePatternWizard you can't adjust the vertical size (height/number of rows) because the program currently does that for you; it was originally programmed that way so people wouldn't skew their patterns. With the version that's in development now there will be editing functions and you'll be able to set the height.

Meanwhile, if you want to experiment with resizing images and you're using a PC I'll be happy to give you links to two free and powerful graphics programs to use for this purpose. (I can't tell you how to use them, though, because I use an ancient Paint Shop Pro from something like, gulp, 1998.)
