Needlepoint, on your iPhone and iPad. Bodkin gives you a canvas, a needle, and a calm rhythm: pick a thread and stitch one hole at a time with a fingertip or Apple Pencil.

THREE WAYS TO START
• Painted canvases: a growing set of built-in designs, painted on the mesh like a shop canvas. You stitch over them.
• From a photo: choose how many stitches across and how many colors. Bodkin matches each one to a real DMC thread.
• From a chart: import a picture of a stitch chart and Bodkin reads the grid. Your first five blank, photo or chart canvases are free.
• Blank canvas: choose 10, 13, or 18 mesh and a size (ornament, coaster, pillow, or custom), then design freely.

STITCH THE WAY IT FEELS
• Stitch with a fingertip on iPhone or iPad. On iPad, Apple Pencil takes over the stitching as soon as it touches the canvas, and fingers pan and zoom.
• Hand-stitched mode: the slant of your stroke and your pull (how quickly you flick a finger, or how hard you press the Pencil) set each stitch's tension, from loose and puffy to tight.
• Real threading: a strand runs out after about 45, 60, or 80 stitches (10, 13, or 18 mesh), and you rethread with a little zzzip.
• Tent, cross, gobelin, French knot, and backstitch, plus basketweave fill, an unpick tool, and a thread-match eyedropper.
• Paint-by-number helpers: Stay in the Lines and Spotlight keep you on the current color.

LEARN AS YOU GO
A two-minute lesson on a tiny practice sun, plus Needlepoint 101: every stitch with a swatch to practice on.

FINISH IT FOR REAL
• Admire your piece framed, as a pillow, or as an ornament, and watch a replay of it being stitched.
• Get a shopping list with DMC colors, Anchor equivalents, canvas size, and needle. Mark the skeins you already own in My Stash. Print a symbol chart as a PDF.

OPTIONAL ONE-TIME PURCHASES (no subscription)
• Bodkin Pro: unlimited canvases from your photos and charts, names and dates lettered onto any painted canvas, plus every Stitch Pack stitch.
• Stitch Pack: the decorative stitches: Bargello, Brick, Mosaic, Scotch, and Smyrna.
Both work with Family Sharing. Painted canvases and everything else are free.
