Pic2Pat
Pic2Pat turns an uploaded photo into a cross-stitch pattern. You choose the pattern size and number of colours, and it generates a printable chart with a floss list.
It is a quick way to test whether a photo will work as a cross-stitch before you buy software.

- Choose size and number of colours
- Printable chart with floss list
Pixilart
Pixilart is a free online pixel art editor and community. It is not a craft tool as such, but crocheters, cross stitchers and knitters use pixel grids to plan C2C blankets, tapestry crochet, colourwork and perler-style motifs.
Each pixel maps to one stitch, so you can count rows and colours straight from the drawing.
