Cross-stitch calculators
Small tools for the arithmetic every project starts with: how big it will be, how much thread it will eat, what to substitute a colour with and what to stitch it on – and a chart made from a photograph.
-
Design size calculator
A chart in stitches into centimetres and inches, plus the cloth to cut for framing – and the same sum backwards, from a frame you already own.
-
Floss usage calculator
How many metres and how many skeins a number of crosses takes, on the count and the strands you are stitching with.
-
Thread converter
A colour code in one brand into the nearest in every other, with the colour distance printed beside each – and a plain account of how that distance is measured.
-
Fabric and strand chooser
How many strands to use on a given count for crosses and for backstitch, how large a stitch comes out – and which count to buy for a size you have in mind.
-
Photograph to chart
Turn a photograph into a chart in one brand’s threads.
