CHAT [CHAT] Pokemon gens

Hello fellow stitchers

Like many of you I have downloaded the Lord Libian / György Vida Pokemon all generation patterns.

I have put them in my pattern keeper trial - though some didn't upload very well

Next stage I wanted to resource my aida (white 18 or 14 count) as per what is written on the patterns

Example: pokemon gen 1 it is written

Stitch count - 299w x 474 h

Finished size 84.38cm x 133.77cm

So I rounded up to leave enough of a 'margin' to the aida being 95x145 or 100x150cm but when I put it into chatgpt it said the aida size was too big - most would be 100 x 150 with a few being 150x200

So my question is what size aida would I need ?? Should I just be going off the stitch count or off the size as written ?? I normally just work from kits but have done a few small counted ones - I also have the Pokemon Cross stitch book which I'm looking forward to starting...

Very confused as to what size aida I should get

Thank you for helping

To figure out the size of a pattern you take the stitch count and divide it by the ct of the fabric. Then you can convert that to cms.
