Does anyone know where I can locate knitter's graph paper? I have lately
become obsessed with the idea of knitting a picture on my 2 1/2 year old
son's sweater that I'm planning to knit for him.

Also, has anyone ever tried any of the knitting software programs that are
out there? I was thinking of buying one I saw that would create knitting
graph from photos or other pictures that are scanned in. Has anyone ever
used this and was it successful/worth it?

thanks!

lisa

Or you can google up "graph paper generator" to find an online script
that will gen up graph paper based on the specs you input.

thank you! For some reason, I was having a devil of a time locating this
online. I wish I could find it locally, too. I'll check out the link.
Thanks!

As far as creating graphs/charts from photos: Commercial knitters' graph
paper is quite thin. Print your source image onto a sheet of regular
paper, overlay the graph paper, tape both to a sunny window and trace.

Ah, fabulous idea! Thanks! I'm all about tracing. I have a projector that
I use alot for designing various projects, too.
Good idea. :-)
