From idea to finished chart in minutes
Choose your craft
Cross stitch or knitting colorwork — the grid, colors and export adapt to each.
Draw or upload
Sketch on a blank grid, or upload a photo and tune size and color count with a live preview.
Print and stitch
Export a print-ready PDF with symbols, gridlines and a full color legend.
Everything a chart maker should have
A drawing-app editor
Pencil, fill, eraser and color picker with unlimited undo, smooth zoom and full touch support — on desktop, tablet and phone.
Photo to pattern
Upload any picture and Yarnivo converts it into a stitchable chart, matched to real DMC floss colors you can actually buy.
Real thread colors
Design with the DMC floss range or a curated yarn shade card, so the finished piece looks like the chart on your screen.
Print-ready PDF export
Export charts with bold 10-stitch gridlines, print symbols for every color, and a legend with codes and stitch counts.
True knitting proportions
Knitting cells are drawn wider than tall — exactly like real stitches — so your colorwork motif won't come out squashed.
Autosave, always
Every change is saved as you make it. Close the tab and pick up where you left off.
