Pattern Keeper APK

Pattern Keeper is the ideal app for cross-stitch enthusiasts looking to streamline their stitching process. With the ability to view and annotate PDF cross-stitch charts, this app helps you stay organized and focused, making your stitching project more enjoyable and efficient. 

View and Annotate PDF Cross-Stitch Charts

Pattern Keeper allows you to open and work with PDF cross-stitch charts directly within the app. It eliminates the need to constantly flip between your chart and the thread legend, simplifying your stitching process. You can view your chart as one continuous pattern, making it easier to follow your design and stitch over page breaks.

Highlight Symbols and Thread Numbers

One of the standout features of Pattern Keeper is the ability to highlight individual symbols on your chart. As you highlight a symbol, the corresponding thread number is displayed, allowing you to focus on stitching with precision. 

Track Your Progress

Keep motivated and track your progress throughout your stitching journey. You can mark stitches as you complete them by swiping horizontally, vertically, or even diagonally. For those large areas, you can also mark an entire 10 by 10 square. The app also displays completed stitches in color, making it easy to navigate and compare them with your current stitching progress.

Mark Thread Parking

Another useful feature is the ability to mark where you have parked your threads. You can specify the corner of a square where you parked your thread, making it easier to pick up right where you left off and maintain organization throughout your project.

Data Preservation After Trial

After the month-long free trial period ends, you will still have access to your chart list, progress data, and the ability to export your progress. The only limitation is that you won’t be able to view detailed charts unless you opt for the one-time payment. Your data, however, remains safe and accessible.
