Pixel font for knitting patterns

zoldie

Hello Everybody,

I am designing knitting patterns for a book for my MA priject and need a bitmap/pixel font that will fit perfectly into a square grid I have created for the designs (there are 60). I am using Crypt but this does not fit perfectly on the grid and i am going to have to create outlines and individually tweek it all which will take a long time. it needs to look perfect as this is about the pattern designs aesthetics rather the functionality of the piece.

Please please help. my deadline is looming and I would be eternally grateful!!

You could “knit” something up in FontStruct.

I saw some great cross-stitch fonts in the PLInc catalogue this weekend. I had the sudden urge to Fontstruct. Sorry. This isn’t on topic.
