    Filet crochet graphing

    I make a lot of my own graphs for filet crochet afghans and am finding it difficult to find an online graph - to use for my graph designs. I have been (and still am) using regular old fashion graph paper and a pencil. Does anyone know of a program I can purchase / use to do this procedure on my computer. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you! -j9

    Hi there, yes, there is a software program available. I've checked the demos (right side of screen) and I like what I saw in the demos. I am familiar with using computer graphics designing but I've never been involved in anything to do with crocheting.

    This program looks wonderful to me and I may just purchase it for myself, ($39.95 -or $49.95 which includes a CD) but not until I do a Google using the search words "Pros and cons" and the name of the software. I can just see using it for a multitude of things, such as using a photo of my cat and creating a filet crochet design with it!

    Here's the link for it...

    I made a graph template in MS Paint, and I just fill in the squares with a different color than white or black of course to make my chart.
