Three things that annoy you in pattern apps

  • Looks free, then asks for money right away

    Pattern design, follow mode and inventory are free. No paywall on the first screen.

  • An ad every few steps

    BeadDot has no ads; nothing interrupts you mid-pattern.

  • Patterns lost with a new phone

    Your patterns are stored on the server in your account, on every device you sign in to.

Four stitches, one editor

Pick a stitch and BeadDot sets up the grid and the stitching order for it.

  • Peyote

    The classic bracelet stitch with offset columns; diagonal peyote is supported too.

  • Brick stitch

    Rows laid like bricks; great for earrings and pendants.

  • Loom

    A straight grid woven on a loom; for wide bracelets and bands.

  • Herringbone

    Textured, flexible bands with a herringbone layout.
