How to make Intersia/Fair Isle knitting graphs with excel
Knitting graph paper
Because knitting stitches are wider then they are tall, Knitting graph paper should accommodate this and the cells should be rectangular and not square.Open excel and choose all the cells (by pressing Ctrl+A) and go to Format> Column> width, and change the width to 0.8, then color the borders black
Now you should have a spreadsheet that looks like knitting graph paper.
Pick a color you like and start filling in cells. Go crazy, HAVE FUN!
