Frequently asked questions
Are all the patterns really free?
Yes. Every chart in the gallery downloads as a free PDF with no account, no watermark and no daily limit. You may print them at home, use them in a classroom and make finished pieces from them for yourself or as gifts.
Which bead brand do the patterns use?
Each pattern names the palette it was written for, usually Hama Midi, Perler or Artkal S, and lists that brand's colour codes. Because midi beads share the same 5 mm size, you can substitute another brand's nearest colour.
How do I know if a pattern is too hard?
Look at the difficulty label, the size in beads and the number of colours. Under 29×29 beads with fewer than ten colours is comfortable for children; multi-board designs with thirty colours need patience and a big table.
Can I change the colours of a pattern?
Yes. Open any pattern in the editor and swap colours, remove the background or crop it to a smaller board. Export your version as a fresh chart with an updated bead count when you are happy with it.
Can I sell what I make from these patterns?
You can sell finished handmade pieces at craft fairs and small shops. Please do not resell or redistribute the chart files themselves, and keep in mind that designs based on well-known characters belong to their owners.
All patterns
A gallery of ready-made designs for the evenings when you do not want to convert anything yourself. Every pattern here comes with the same chart the converter produces: a numbered grid, a legend of brand colour codes, the bead count per colour and a PDF sized for A4 and Letter. Download it, print it, and start placing — no account, no watermark, nothing to pay.
Browse by theme — animals, food, gaming sprites, flowers, letters and seasonal designs — or by difficulty, from small keychains a child can finish in twenty minutes to multi-board pictures that take an afternoon. Each pattern lists its size in beads, how many standard 29×29 pegboards it needs, and which brand palette it was written for, so you know what to buy before you begin. Found something close to what you want but not quite right? Open it in the editor, change the colours or the background, and export your own version. The gallery grows steadily, so it is worth checking back for new charts.
