Um, has anyone ever bothered manually converting a decently large paper pattern into digital?

Was it worth the time you saved during actual stitching?

Because it seemed like a really good idea to give myself a Pattern Keeper version of Errol, but this much took me half an hour, so maybe not...

@Jornia @Drachin @lemmy_stitch Sadly mine has so much backstitch everywhere PK can't really make sense of it. But you know what, I'm in the groove, I'll just keep going.

For science! ๐Ÿ˜†

@thegiddystitcher @Drachin @lemmy_stitch PK doesn't recognize the symbols for me either, which isn't so bad. I can still mark the finished one and the symbol list is next to it.

@Jornia @Drachin @lemmy_stitch Will let you know how long this takes and if it was worth it in the end ๐Ÿ˜…

@thegiddystitcher @Drachin @lemmy_stitch I'm excited, entering the 2 photos into PK took about 45 minutes
It didn't turn out perfectly, but it still works great.
