Knitting projects, patterns, yarn stash, row counter and stitch calculator
Read full description
KnitBuddy is your knitting buddy. Your projects, knitting patterns, yarn and needles are in one place, so you can always see what is on your needles, where you are, and what you have at home. That leaves your mind free for the knitting, and for enjoying it. WHAT YOU GET • All your projects in one place, with pattern, yarn and needles • Your knitting patterns at hand, with the counter on the same screen • An overview of the yarn and needles you have, before you buy more • You always know where you are • The maths done for you Four tabs keep it all in order: Tools, Projects, Yarn stash and Settings. YOUR PROJECTS IN ONE PLACE Each piece of knitting gets its own project with pattern, counters, yarn, needles, notes and photos, so everything belongs together. Tap Continue, and the pattern opens on the page where you left off, with the counter ready at the bottom. The time is counted while you count rows, so you can see how long each project takes. YOUR KNITTING PATTERNS AT HAND Keep all your patterns in one place, so you do not have to search through emails, folders and piles of paper. Add a PDF from your phone, take photos of a printed pattern, scan the pages with the camera, or share them to KnitBuddy from another app. A band in your yarn color lies over the line you are knitting and moves along as you count. Pin notes to the page, and sort your patterns into categories. AN OVERVIEW OF YARN AND NEEDLES See at a glance what you have at home before you buy more or cast on. Take a photo of the ball band, and the brand, grams, meters and needle size are filled in for you. Your needles are in the stash, and you can see which are in use and which a project is still missing. A finished project takes its yarn out of the stash by itself. Import your yarn and needles from a spreadsheet, and see in the statistics what you have used. THE COUNTER THAT KEEPS TRACK Give the body, the sleeves and the repeats a counter each with a goal, and feel a small buzz when you reach it. It reminds you of repeats such as "every 8th row, 10 times", and of "Row 24: change to color B". Count with a + from the lock screen or from a widget on the home screen. The screen stays on while you knit. THE MATHS DONE FOR YOU • Even increases and decreases, in the round and back and forth, also over a few rows • Increases up a sleeve, with a counter that reminds you of them • How many skeins to buy, and what you already have in your stash • Buttonholes evenly spaced along the band • The pattern converted to your own gauge • Gauge swatches written down and compared with the pattern Tick off each line as you knit, and save the calculation in the project. A BUDDY YOU CAN TRUST No account and no ads. Everything is calculated and kept on your phone, and the app works without a connection. The Google components used for purchases, reading ball bands and the document scanner send Google technical usage data – never your photos, patterns, projects or yarn. Export a project as a PDF, or everything at once. KnitBuddy comes in 35 languages with each language's own knitting abbreviations, in a light or dark design, in ten yarn colors, and works with large text and TalkBack.
