FAQ

Is it free?

Yes, with no sign-up and no watermark over the chart. A small viva mark and the site address go in one corner.

Is my photo uploaded?

No. The chart is made inside this browser tab. The photo and the result are never sent anywhere.

Which thread numbers should I buy?

Hold each swatch and hex code up to your thread brand's color card and pick the closest number. Brand numbers aren't listed here.

How big will it be?

Stitches ÷ fabric count = inches. 80 stitches on 14-count Aida is about 14.5 cm; on 18-count it's about 11.3 cm.

How many colors should I pick?

6–10 for simple pictures and pets on a plain background, 16–24 for portraits and landscapes. More colors means more thread changes.
