Free Mosaic Crochet Pattern Maker
Turn a geometric design, motif, or logo into an overlay mosaic crochet chart you can work row by row. Upload an image and MakeBead reduces it to two colors, derives the X chart by the real overlay rules — one color per row, X = drop-down double crochet into the row two below — and writes every row out as sc/X runs with the foundation setup. Toggle the X marks over the finished-look preview, flip any cell in the editor, and export a printable PDF.

功能
A Real X Chart, Derived for You
The hard part of mosaic design is turning a picture into valid X placements. MakeBead derives every X from the overlay rules automatically — the chart, the written rows, and the preview always agree.
Row-by-Row Written Instructions
Every row as "5 sc, 1 X, 7 sc…" with its color letter — one color per row, right side always facing. Plus the foundation rows, the BLO/FLO method note, and the cut-end reminder.
Any Two Colors
Mosaic charts are colorway-agnostic: the pattern uses Color A and Color B, and you work it in any two yarns with good contrast. Stitch counts per color tell you how much of each to buy.
Finished-Look Preview
See the design as it will crochet up, then toggle the X marks on to see the working chart. Click any cell in the editor to refine the motif — the X chart re-derives instantly.
True Stitch Proportions
Single crochet is wider than tall, so the chart generates with gauge-corrected rows — your geometric motif stays square in the fabric instead of squashing.

What Is Overlay Mosaic Crochet?
Overlay mosaic crochet is the striking two-color technique behind those sharply geometric blankets and cushions: you work one color per row, alternating every row, and never carry or change colors mid-row. The pattern appears through drop-down double crochets — marked X on the chart — worked into the front loop of the stitch two rows below, so a vertical bar of your current color covers the other color's row.
Because each row is a single color and every X is worked from the row above, a mosaic chart has strict internal logic — you can't just color squares freely and call it mosaic. That derivation is exactly what this tool automates: it picks the row-color striping, places every X, counts them, and warns about the one genuine limitation (the top chart row can't be covered — give it a plain closing row).
Mosaic is one of four crochet chart styles here: the crochet graph maker (multi-color graphgan & C2C), the filet crochet pattern maker (open/filled mesh lace), and the tapestry crochet pattern maker (carried-color rounds for bags). Overlay mosaic is the boldest of the four — and the easiest to work, one color at a time.

常見問題
How do I turn an image into a mosaic crochet pattern? ▾
Upload the image and drag the fill threshold until the motif reads clearly in two colors — geometric designs, borders, and logos work best. The tool derives the X chart and written rows automatically; export the PDF and work it row by row.
How do I read a mosaic crochet chart? ▾
Each row is worked in one color (the row's letter in the written instructions). Plain cells are sc in the back loop only; a cell marked X is a double crochet worked into the FRONT loop of the stitch two rows directly below, in front of the last row. Work with the right side always facing.
What is the foundation for mosaic crochet? ▾
Chain your stitch count and work two plain sc rows — the setup block tells you which color each is. They anchor the drop-down dcs of the first chart rows and are not shown on the chart.
Why does the yarn get cut at the end of every row? ▾
Classic overlay mosaic is worked with the right side always facing, so you fasten off at the end of each row and start the next from the same side. The ends become fringe, or you crochet a border over them. (Flat turned mosaic exists, but X charts assume the cut method.)
Which two colors should I use? ▾
Any two with strong contrast — the chart is colorway-agnostic (Color A = main, Color B = contrast). The setup block shows exactly how many stitches of each color the design uses, so you can size your yarn purchase.
Why can't the top row show the contrast color? ▾
An X always comes from the row above the cell it covers — and the top chart row has no row above it. If your design needs contrast color in the top row, the tool warns you: add a plain closing row above the chart, or edit those cells.
Can I edit the design after converting? ▾
Yes — open Edit Pattern and click or drag to flip cells between the two colors. The X chart, written rows, and counts re-derive instantly from your edits.
Is this the same as interlocking crochet? ▾
No — interlocking (LFM) crochet weaves two separate meshes through each other and uses different charts. This tool is for overlay mosaic: one fabric, one color per row, drop-down dcs. It's the technique most "mosaic crochet" patterns and videos teach.
What size will my blanket or cushion be? ▾
Enter your gauge (stitches and rows per 4 in / 10 cm; the default matches worsted sc) and the setup block plus the finished-size line show the panel dimensions in inches and centimeters.
Is the mosaic crochet pattern maker free? ▾
Yes, completely free. No sign-up needed — convert images and export unlimited mosaic charts.
