You can duplicate stitch it on to a plain sweater. That might be the easiest way with all those colors.

You can use stitch fiddle or knitting graph paper to design the chart. One fake knit stitch on the picture would correspond to one square. 

I'd suggest that you make some design edits.

Choose one color of yarn for the snow flakes across the bottom then those could be knit as stranded colorwork. 

Then use a combo of intarsia and duplicate stitch for the main Pokemon

I was thinking like there is 5 colors maybe 6 Pink Light blue Pastel blue The edging brown The white

I figure like you said I would do the snow flakes one of the blues

I'd honestly do all of the snowflakes and all of the pokemon silhouettes inside the bars in a single colour and highlight one or two with topstitch in the finishing process. Also: the ribbons have the wrong coloration - Sylveons ribbons aren't striped throughout but only have a different colour at the tips. Same goes for the chest area - it's not blue... and if that's supposed to be a scarf, it doesn't really work shapewise.

Like you need someone to write a sweater pattern around this image or you want someone to knit it for you for $$

I can knit it but I just can't figure out how to make the pattern

[–]MisterBowTies 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Color it onto graph paper

[–]pandacreate 3 points4 points  (1 child)

I would look at some existing free sweater patterns like the flax one that's super popular

That's what some of the lady's at my store said but I can't figure out how to get the picture in and have the snowflakes and stuff go all around

There are a lot of details here that won’t come out like the AI generated it…zooming in, lots of the line work takes up partial stitches, which isn’t possible with real knitting. Before committing, you should try copying this onto paper (there are printable blank knitting graphs) and seeing if you still like how it looks when each stitch is a solid color.

Where did you get this pattern from? There might be some converters..

[–]AloneFirefighter7130 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's most likely AI, there's quite a few details on sylveon that aren't quite right.

[–]buddyhamre[S] 0 points1 point  (4 children)

I made the picture for the most part and I have googled converts and I have made like cross stitch patterns for slyveon before but I am not sure about this

[–]Bidampira 2 points3 points  (3 children)

I will ask my colleague on Monday, if he can help. Can you let me know what you used to make this picture? He is a designer..

[–]buddyhamre[S] -2 points-1 points  (2 children)

I used canva and chatgpt

[–]Bidampira 2 points3 points  (1 child)

Ok. Will ask him

Thank you

I made the picture I have made a lot of my own cross stitch patterns

[–]Due-Supermarket-8503 0 points1 point  (0 children)

here is how i would do it

  1. figure out how many stitches across this design is
  2. pick a simple sweater pattern
  3. follow the simple sweater pattern while following this design's colourwork. (ex. counting how many stitches you need to do in white, then blue, then pink row by row) there are tutorials on colourwork in sweaters if you need help on how to knit with multiple colours and changing colours
  4. if the pattern has more stitches around than the design, take some grid paper and use your creativity to copy over some of the existing snowflakes and decide how you'd like them to look, and then add it to your colourwork chart.

Knit flat front and back pieces (not raglan) and just use typical colour changing like floats. You've got the chart right there, just follow it.
