Hello! I've been using PC Stitch for about 3 years now, but I'm wondering if there is a way to change the size of the french knots. I get the impression it's only for pattern print out, but I want to be able to see them smaller when I'm actually designing my patterns. Is there a way to do this that I'm missing? TIA!!!

OK, so now my question is, how can I make the french knots different sizes on the SAME pattern. I can change the size, but it applies to the whole pattern.....I'm designing a cross stitch pattern that uses french knots for buttons on a military uniform, so those need to remain small, but I'm also using french knots for a bouquet and I need those to be bigger. Thoughts???

I don't think that's possible. You would just have to make that information in the instruction section.

For anyone curious, you can change the size of your French knots by using the "Floss Properties" window.

This can be accessed by right-clicking on the floss color in your palette and selecting "Properties." (Image: https://www.deviantart.com/chimerical-situation/art/Floss-Properties-Option-892654948)

Then use the dropdown menu to the right of "Frenchknot Style" to select the size and shape of the French knots you would like. Selecting "Dot" reduces the size of the French knots. (Image: https://www.deviantart.com/chimerical-situation/art/Floss-Properties-Window-892656863
