The cross-stitch tracker for the PDF patterns you already own. Your first 3 patterns are free — then buy once. No subscription, ever. Stitchwork turns your pattern into a tappable, zoomable chart you mark off stitch by stitch, right through to the last one. And it never loses a stitch. Import a pattern PDF (or a photo of a chart) and Stitchwork lays a grid over it so every cell becomes tappable. Tap or drag to mark stitches done and watch your completion climb in real time. Your progress syncs across your iPhone and iPad through your own private iCloud — stitch on the couch with your iPad, check a color at the store on your phone, and pick up right where you left off.
