Frequently asked

Does it handle non-square stitches?
Yes. Single crochet stitches are usually wider than tall, so single crochet charts use cells 1.25 times as wide as they are tall, while C2C and filet charts use square cells. The gauge calculator uses your real stitches-per-4-inches and rows-per-4-inches to show finished dimensions.
Can I import a photo?
Click Uploads in the editor. Craft Studio resizes the photo to your grid and reduces it to as many colors as you choose. More colors give smoother gradients.
Will it work for tapestry and graphgan?
Yes. Both are colorwork at heart. The editor doesn't lock you into a stitch type, so you can use it for tapestry crochet, intarsia graphgans, and overlay mosaic designs.
