This pattern maker only works in DMC colours, and can only make patterns a max of 100 pixels wide.
To make your pattern simply click the link above. You'll be taken to this page: Start by clicking browse to find the image you wish to turn into a pattern.
Leave the "Stitch" option as loom.
Then click the "view/hide advanced settings" button. In this option you can select different options for your pattern.
The first option is most important, as this sets the width of your pattern. Change the value to anything below 101, preferably the original image width.
You can also change the type of cell, which simply shows the pattern in different ways.
Then you have the option to pick colours, if you wish to limit the amount in the pattern.
Finally, click the "create pattern" button, and you will be taken to your pattern.
You must right click the pattern and click "save image as..." and save it onto your computer.
