PontoCrz – Photo to Cross Stitch Pattern

PontoCrz – Photo to Cross Stitch Pattern is an open-source Linux application in the Photo & Graphics category. It converts a selected photo into a cross-stitch pattern that can be used as a reference for embroidery. The application is intended for people who want to prepare a physical stitching project from an image. Its workflow focuses on selecting an image, adjusting the resulting pattern, and exporting a file for reference.

Users can set the pattern size to match the dimensions they want to work with. This setting lets the digital pattern correspond to the intended physical project. Users can also change the number of colors in the result. Changing the color count provides control over the pattern’s color range.

After the image and pattern settings are complete, PontoCrz exports the finished pattern as a JPG file. The JPG is designed to be clean and printable for use as a reference during stitching. The application therefore covers the process from photo selection through pattern adjustment to preparation for physical stitching.
