Kinda neat - it's going to make an alternating pattern with a couple colors.
Don't know how you get from that to arbitrary patterns. Is that needed? I don't know what the end result should look like.
@Museek i have another thought. In Photoshop or gimp it's possible to coarsen a picture, i.e. reduce the pixel count. It's basically like over laying a grid.
Won't scratch the coding itch. Might work though to make a bead grid from a picture.
Don't think I can explain it. Can make an example.
@Museek I think I get it. The grids are not uniform because the beads and stitches vary?
The gimp option I was thinking of allows varying x and y independently, but that's it. This has x width at 10 pixels and y at 5:
@b4cks4w i understand. I can make grids. I just want to make them so I can design them without having g to piece them together or just do them the old-fashioned way of coloring in charts.
There are many possible combinations, depending on the size, bead count as well as type of stitches. When I make fringe earrings I use at 2 different kinds of stitches and so it would save time to select from a menu while designing otherwise I must piece them together. Tedious. time could be better spent.
