Lightening a pattern

In the Tools menu you'll find the Lighten option. It introduces a pattern of alternating single and double crochet stitches across all large filled regions, giving the design a lighter, airier feel.

Try it out — if you don't like the result, just undo it with Ctrl+Z / Cmd+Z.

Where the idea came from

Have a look at this gorgeous pattern by Svetlana Rogatykh on Ravelry: A Midsummer Night's Dream. It inspired us to add this feature to CromoDesigner. Svetlana offers both the solid and the light variation of the same pattern on her Ravelry page.
