Latch Hook Charts: Rug Maker

Turn any photo into a latch hook or punch needle rug chart, matched to real yarn you can buy. Pick a photo of your pet, a favourite place or a simple design, frame it as a square, 3:4 or round rug, and the app builds a symbol chart stitch by stitch. Then tick off each square as you hook. REAL YARN SHADES Charts are matched to the solid shades of Stylecraft Special Chunky and Special DK. The app picks the shades that fit your photo best, so the key reads like a shopping list: "1004 Dark Brown, 1 ball". Every yarn shows how close it is to the photo. Prefer a different shade? Tap it in the key and pick another, nearest first. You can also use any colours straight from the photo. KNOW THE SIZE BEFORE YOU START Choose your canvas (3.75 count, 5 count or 3.3 count) or punch needle gauge and the app shows the finished rug size in cm and inches. SHOPPING LIST Stitch counts, metres of yarn and balls to buy for every shade, with strands per stitch you can set. Share the list to your notes or a friend in one tap. TICK OFF AS YOU GO Tap a stitch to tick it, or tick a whole row. Pinch to zoom, highlight one yarn at a time, and see your progress at a glance. Your place is saved. PRINTABLE PDF Print the chart with a key, numbered rows and columns and a bold line every 10 stitches. Punch needle charts can be mirrored for the back of the cloth.
