I remember being almost hypnotized by
the "no signal" TV screen
... oh, the 80's!So well, I decided to turn this "oldies but goodies" into a sweater.
I made my own chart, using Excel (see the how-to here) - I tried different kinds of generators, but at the end I went back to Excel to make it exactly like I wanted.
The advantage of this is that the cells can be modified to the exact size of the knit, matching exactly the stitch gauge.
The disadvantage is that... well it's time consuming.
