Tondo, Cross Stitch Embroidery

Cross stitch, hand embroidery, knitting and sewing, in one app you buy once. Cross-stitch and hand-embroidery progress syncs through your own iCloud. Photo to pattern runs on your device and uses no generative AI. MAKE YOUR OWN PATTERN • Turn a photo or drawing into a cross-stitch chart with DMC floss codes. • Set the size, colors and fabric. Lock or merge colors and preview the finished size. • Draw on a blank grid with brushes, fill, lines and lettering. • Your photo stays on your device. No account needed, no charge per pattern. READS YOUR PDF CHARTS • Import PDF charts: grid, symbols and thread key are detected automatically. • Chart files open with their exact grid and key: OXS, PAT, XSD, FCJSON, SVG, KXS, CST and SA4. • Check stitches read from a photo of a printed chart. • Multi-page charts become one continuous canvas. TRACK YOUR STITCHES • Highlight a color and track how many stitches remain. • Swipe rows, fill a 10×10 block and step back through your last ten actions, one tap each. • Park threads, flag stitches to unpick and find the last few stitches of a color. • Backstitch and fractional stitches are tracked on their own. HAND EMBROIDERY TOO • Plan threads, choose stitches and track your hand embroidery. • Preview a photo as an outline with DMC threads and print it at hoop size. KNITTING FROM YOUR OWN PATTERNS • Open PDF, photos, scans, EPUB, DOCX or saved web pages without changing the original. • Row counters per part, with repeats, linked counters and a guide for your current row. • Choose your size to highlight your numbers; switch abbreviations and units. • Highlight, draw and write notes on the PDF. • Design charts with cables, brioche, lace and intarsia colorwork, and turn them into written instructions. • Keep your yarn stash, needles and swatches; read yarn labels or browse the catalog. • Widgets on iPhone, iPad and Mac, and an Apple Watch companion for counting rows. FABRIC SCRAPS INTO PROJECTS • Record fabric scraps with photos and sizes to find pieces that fit. • Sew a cushion cover, drawstring bag or quilted table runner with step-by-step instructions. • Plan cuts across your scraps and print full-size PDF templates.
