Photo to graph

Hey y’all I’m looking for the best way to convert an image to a graph?

I’m trying to make 2 granny squares. One with just a “T” and the other a “K”. I am using the Harvest font.

I put the photos into stitch fiddle and the images don’t look good. They are super pixelated and I’m wondering how I can make them clear crisp images.

Any help would be appreciated. Thank you

I would ask @yarnomaly- they’re really good with that kind of stuff!

hi!! like axo said, i’m happy to help! if you want, you can send the pictures here (or DM me if you don’t want them to be public) and i can do my best to help!

how big are you wanting to make them? the main issue i find with very pixelated photos is that the tapestry size is too small. i always try to size up the tapestry and include at least a few colors (but ive successfully made clear tapestries with as little as 3 colors!), but with stitch fiddle, i pretty much just play around until i get it right. i do have premium over there so have access to some tools that would make graph making easier, so i’d be happy to help if you’d like! :grin:

ChatGPT will also create graphs over uploaded images, if you have access to that. I just did that earlier today. :slight_smile:

Thank you!

I’m wanting to make them into granny squares. And I want each square to be 8" x 8" and I’m finding when I put them into stitch fiddle they are super distorted and pixelated when I try and resize and idk what I’m doing wrong. Any help would be super appreciated.

Here are the 2 photos I’m trying to use

i’m sorry if this isn’t what you were looking for, but here was my best attempt! i put the photos into canva at 8 in x 8 in then put them into stitch fiddle and hit “exact size,” so i hope they’ll be around the correct gauge for you! i did edit some pieces of them to have a more rounded edge, but i think this is probably the best i can do, so im really sorry if it doesn’t work! :sob: the graphs here do contain the rows and column numbers, and it’s only two colors!

Omg thank you so much! I used Canva to make the font but it wouldn’t let me readjust the size.

I can’t thank you enough! I was fighting these all night last night and just gave up
