Nonogram in Just One More, Knit & Purl

How to play Nonogram

A small stitching pattern hides under blank squares. Read the row and column counts and fill in the right cells to reveal the picture.

  1. Read the Counts

    Each row and column shows how many cells are filled and how big each run is. "3, 1" means a run of three, then a gap, then a run of one.

  2. Fill or Mark Empty

    Tap a cell to fill it as a knit stitch. Tap and hold (or use the toggle) to mark a cell as empty. Both kinds of marks help solve the row.

  3. Logic, Not Guesswork

    Every puzzle has one solution found by overlapping the possibilities for each row and column. If a row has only one fit, the answer is forced.

  4. Reveal the Picture

    Fill in every correct cell to finish the stitching pattern and reveal the cozy picture hidden inside.

Four difficulty levels

Every level keeps its own streak, best and high score, so climbing costs you nothing.

Easy
5×5 patterns. The friendliest stitchwork, easy to read.
Medium
8×8 patterns. The classic picross size.
Hard
12×12 patterns. Bigger pictures, more rows to count.
Very Hard
15×15 patterns. A long, careful afternoon's stitching.
