Skeinworks: Cross Stitch

Turn a photograph into a cross-stitch chart you can actually stitch. Skeinworks reads your photo, matches every stitch to one of 489 real DMC floss shades, and hands you a printable symbol chart with a per-colour skein count. No pixel-art guesswork, no invented colours, no threads you cannot buy. WHAT YOU GET • Photo to chart — import from your camera or library and Skeinworks charts it stitch by stitch. It drops the background, keeps the subject, and throws away stray single stitches that would be miserable to sew. • Real DMC colours — every stitch is matched to the nearest shade in the DMC Six-Strand Embroidery Floss range (489 colours), so the floss you buy is the colour you saw. • Symbol chart PDF — the cross-stitch industry format. Each colour gets its own symbol, the grid carries absolute row and column numbers you can call out loud, and the last page is a thread table that tells you how many skeins to buy. • Finished size, before you start — pick 14, 16 or 18 count Aida and Skeinworks tells you exactly how big the stitched area will be, and how much fabric to cut. Inches and centimetres. • Build mode — work by row, by block or by colour. Tick stitches off as you sew and the chart remembers where you stopped. • Floss drawer — record the skeins you own. Skeinworks deducts what each chart uses and tells you what you are short of. • Shopping list — one tap turns the shortfall into an Amazon basket, with the DMC code already in the search. Aida, hoops, needles and threaders too. SIZES Charts come in 60×60, 120×120 and 200×200 as presets, with a fully custom grid from 10 to 300 stitches on a side. ON EVERY SCREEN YOU OWN One purchase covers iPhone, iPad and Mac. The wide canvas on iPad and Mac is where a 200×200 chart finally becomes comfortable to read. FREE AND PRO Free is genuinely usable: ten active charts, the full conversion engine, build mode, inventory and the shopping list. Pro removes the chart limit and exports the complete, watermark-free PDF with the materials cover sheet. Weekly, monthly, or a one-off lifetime purchase.
