Free animal charts with grid, palette, and stitch counts — cats, dragons, frogs, and a generator for any animal you can photograph.
Animal charts turn a grid of colored squares into a kitten, a dragon, or a frog on your blanket, pillow, or wall hanging. Every pattern here is a real, followable chart: each cell is one stitch (or one C2C block), every color comes with an exact stitch count, and the grid is sized for worsted-weight yarn.
Can't find the animal you want? The pattern generator makes a chart from any clear photo — upload your pet and it becomes a stitch grid with a counted palette. That's how the cat charts on this page were made.
The classic first graphgan motif — big eyes, pink cheeks, done in an evening. Great on a baby blanket corner or a pouch.

This chart was generated from a real kitten photo by the pattern generator — proof of what your own pet photos become.

In single crochet, each cell is one stitch. Follow the grid from the bottom up, reading odd rows right-to-left. For C2C, work diagonally — one cell per block.
Weave in ends, block the panel, and sew it onto a blanket, pillow, or bag. Want your own animal? Upload a photo to the generator.

A chart is a colored grid you follow stitch by stitch to build a flat picture (graphgan, C2C, tapestry). An amigurumi pattern is written row-by-row instructions for a 3D stuffed animal. This page is charts; they work for blankets, pillows, and wall hangings.
Yes — that's exactly what the pattern generator does. Upload a clear photo of your pet (plain background works best), and it converts it to a stitch grid with per-color stitch counts in seconds.
Worsted-weight (#4) acrylic is the standard choice: cheap, washable, and available in every color. One single-crochet stitch at worsted weight is roughly square, so the chart proportions carry straight into the finished piece.
For panels seen from both sides, carry yarn inside the stitches (tapestry style) and keep floats under 4–5 stitches. For blanket squares that get a backing, you can simply strand colors loosely across the back.
