Explore six themed embroidery books, four free wave plans and a Cat Christmas Tree starter kit, with clearer guides, stitched swatches and printable transfers. Turn a photo or idea into a project you can stitch. Sashiko brings embroidery patterns, knitting charts, fabric and thread choices, animated needle guides and printable designs together on your iPhone. FROM PHOTO TO PATTERN Import a photo or illustration, choose the subject and review the result. Create a running-stitch outline, colour-fill embroidery design or knitting chart. Refine the design, match threads or yarns and preview the stitches. On supported devices, you can prepare artwork in Image Playground before converting it. DESIGN YOUR OWN Create grid patterns, edit stitch routes and adjust dimensions, spacing and colours. Paint and refine knitting charts, set the gauge and repeats, and carry your edits through to previews, guides and exports. CHOOSE YOUR MATERIALS Browse branded fabric, embroidery thread and yarn collections by colour family, shade code and material details. Record your own supplies with a name and colour, then add fibre, measurements and notes. Choose materials for a swatch and carry them into a new pattern. Keep those selections in saved designs and exported material lists. FIND A PATTERN TO START Explore 20 free sashiko patterns. An optional one-time Sashiko pattern book purchase unlocks 50 more, including nine original geometric designs. Browse before buying and use the bundled patterns offline. Selected patterns include background stories and source links. FOLLOW THE NEEDLE Watch animated stitch routes, compare the front and back, and mark your progress. Try the first three stitch lessons free. The optional Complete stitch course provides step-by-step films with playback speed and subtitle controls. Downloaded films can be watched offline. PRINT AND SHARE Export actual-size transfer charts for A4 or US Letter, needle steps and pattern specifications. Share knitting charts, material lists, previews and editable designs. Print at 100% and check the scale before transferring to fabric. Export PES files for compatible Brother embroidery machines, check the selected hoop size and include a thread list. Convert knitting swatches to cross-stitch embroidery using your gauge and repeat settings. KEEP YOUR PLACE Save projects, reference photos, notes and stitching progress on your device.
