Projects, as many as you like
Each project keeps its own row counter, stitch counter and repeat counter. Switch between a blanket and a pair of socks and both stay exactly where you left them.
For crochet and knitting
Keep your place in every row.
A row counter that remembers each project, plus a highlighter for your own PDF and photo patterns. The core app is free, has no ads and never asks you to make an account.

Both store listings are in review. The links work as soon as Apple and Google approve them.
What you get for free
We wanted a counter we would use ourselves, so the useful parts are free and stay free. No trial timer on the basics, and no ads covering your pattern.
Bring your own patterns
Import a PDF or snap a photo of a printed page. A highlighter bar sits on the row you are working, and you slide it down as you go, so you never lose your line.
14 free patterns
Original patterns we wrote for the app, from a first dishcloth up to a granny square blanket. They are yours to keep, with no unlock needed.
Stitch dictionary
Every common abbreviation with a short explanation, in US or UK terms. Handy when a pattern says "sc2tog" and your brain says no.
Calculators
Gauge, yarn needed, and evenly spaced increases and decreases. The maths you would otherwise do on the back of the pattern.
Backup you control
Export everything to a single file and keep it wherever you like. Restore it on a new phone in a few taps.
Free, and Pro if you want more
Pro is for people who crochet or knit most days and want notes, stats and a few more patterns. Buying it is how we pay for new patterns and keep the app ad free.
