AJ_GS_sharp_150._8

I can create a crochet pattern from a personal photo of your choice. Simply send me the photo and give me an idea of how large in rows you want the resulting piece to be (see “How to Order” below). The above photos show the transformation from black and white (aka grayscale) photo to 150-row pattern image. My patterns are typically crocheted from side to side (vertically), but I can also create patterns that are crocheted from the bottom up if that is what you prefer.

For grayscale patterns, you’ll have TWO color palettes to choose from – shades of brown and shades of gray. And to make shopping for yarn easy, I provide yarn brands and color names/numbers for each of the eight shades in both palettes.

Size of Finished Piece and Price

Working with a gauge of 4 rows and 4 stitches per inch and assuming the resulting piece is a perfect square (it won’t always be), the list below gives you an idea of  the size of your finished piece:

  • 60 to 99 rows (approx. 15″ by 15″ up to 24″ by 24″)
  • 100 to 149 rows (approx. 25″  by 25″ up to 37″ by 37″)
  • 150 to 199 rows (approx. 38″ by 38″ up to 49″ by 49″)
  • 200 or more rows (approx. 50″ by 50″ and larger)

Keep in mind that the smaller a piece is, the less detail there will be in the pattern. Therefore, pieces in the 60- to 99-row range make good closeups of faces. As the patterns get larger, your photo can contain more people and detail.

Gray Scale Custom-Made Patterns Are Only $35; yarn colors and brand names for 8 colors are included.

Color Custom-Made Patterns (6 colors or less) are $35; yarn colors and brand names are NOT included. 

Portraits (i.e. images with people’s faces) are done in gray scale only.

HOW TO ORDER

Send your clear, crisp photo to be converted into a pattern to patrice@yarnoverpullthrough.com. Include the following information:

Don’t send me a payment yet. I will review the photo and email you an image of what the finished piece will look like. I’ll also let you know how many stitches and rows it will include and the approximate size of the final piece, based on a gauge of 4 rows and 4 stitches per inch.

If you are satisfied with the pattern image, I will email you an invoice via PayPal (you don’t need a PayPal account to pay the invoice). You can pay with a credit or debit card.

If you are not satisfied with the image, I’ll do one more revision based on your specifications and email it to you for approval. Once I have your approval, pay the invoice, and you will have your pattern in 48 hours or less.

Please  contact me if you have questions about these custom-made crochet photo patterns or need more information.

**Important Notes**

I cannot make patterns of photos that are copyrighted. You should either own the photo or have written permission to use it. The photo can also be in the public domain or have a Creative Commons  license that allows others to adapt it and use it  commercially.

Remember, these are “word patterns,” NOT graphs.

I've been crocheting for over 40 years and blogging since 2004 - two of my favorite things in the world to do besides walking the beaches of windward Oahu, Hawaii.
