About Knitting and Crochet Buddy

Knitting and Crochet Buddy (Knitting Buddy) is an all-in-one knitting and crochet project tracker that allows you to track multiple knitting or crochet projects. Knitting Buddy has a row counter, repeat counter, project timer, notes pages, ruler, a flashlight, and it even displays your knitting pattern on the row counter page (great for lace)! This app was originally developed for knitting, but those who crochet will also find it quite useful.

Knitting Buddy isn't your standard knitting row counter -- it is a true knitting and crochet project tracker. Here are more details about the features of Knitting Buddy:

MULTIPLE PROJECT SUPPORT: No limit to the number of knitting or crochet projects that you can track. Each project has individualized settings.

ROW COUNTER: Track the current row of your knitting or crochet project. The row numbers are displayed nice and big on the main page. Increase (or decrease) the row number by pushing on an actual "button" on a knit background.

REPEAT COUNTER: Track the current repeat row, and optionally link the repeat counter to the row counter. You can specify the number of repeat rows on the project settings page.

DISPLAY PATTERN: Take a screen shot of your knitting pattern and display it on the main project page. This feature is super handy as it eliminates the need to switch between applications or to carry a paper copy of your pattern.

NEEDLE TRACKER / LOG: Track all of your knitting needles. The log displays US, metric, and UK sizes, and allows you to track needle length, material, type, and whether or not the needle is in use.

PROJECT TIMER: Ever wonder how long it actually takes to complete a knitting or crochet project? Use the project timer to track the time it takes to complete each project. Each project has an individual timer that must be manually started/stopped.

RULER: Tired of carrying a separate ruler for to check your tension? Use the ruler feature to make sure that your tension is just right.

NOTES PAGE: Track all of the project's notes, such as yarn, yarn weight, needles, gauge, and other notes. Please email the developer if you have additional items that you would like to track!

GLOBAL and PROJECT SETTINGS: Completely customize your Knitting Buddy experience. The screen can be tailored to according to your preferences, such as showing or hiding features such as repeat rows, knitting pattern, project timer, and project progress.

TRACK PROGRESS: Set the total number of rows for your knitting project, and Knitting Buddy will track your percent complete.

ADD IMAGES / PHOTOGRAPHS: Take pictures of your project at various phases to remember what the project looked like at various stages. Add notes about each image and view the images directly from the app. You can also add screenshots of your patterns that can be viewed from the project page.

FLASHLIGHT: Turn your devices camera into a flashlight to help find difficult stitches.

PRO SUBSCRIPTION: Remove all of the ads from the application and allows you to change the style of your project theme.

CHANGE PROJECT THEME: Change between the standard buttons and more colorful flowers, hearts, and shamrocks.

KNITTING NEEDLE AND CROCHET HOOK SIZE CHARTS: Convert needle sizes between metric, U.S. sizes, and U.K. sizes and crochet hooks between metric, numeric, and letter.

ABBREVIATIONS: Look up abbreviations commonly used in knitting and crochet patterns.

YARN CHARTS: Helpful data to convert different sizes of yarn.

SOCK CHARTS: Common foot sixes for men, women, and children!

Love this app. Makes knitting more fun.

C70%
by C####:

I find this app SO handy. Love all the information I can put in for each project. Would have given 5☆ if there was some way I could enter knitting loom information the way you can knitting needles and crochet hooks. Only other issue.... I had a pattern pic loaded in my project notes, then deleted it off of my tablet. Poof, gone from my notes. Wish they would stay once downloaded.

E70%
by E####:

I was afraid I lost my entire needle inventory with the last upgrade, turns out I didn't have enough space on my phone to complete it. So I had to make some room and they're all back! I like this app it's very helpful and organized!

C70%
by C####:

Ever since I first used this app I have never used any thing else for when I'm knitting out and about. I even use it when knitting at home. Its much easier that row counters that can slip off your needles the ladies in the craft group all use it too

S70%
by S####:

I've just learned to crochet and this app allows me to keep track of my rows and projects. I wish though it had loom tracking as well as i knit, crochet and i loom knit so an all in one app would be awesome.

C70%
by C####:

This is a good app unless you have to do a factory reset on your device. Even if you have a backup, you can't restore your data. I don't know how or why it is hidden but you can't restore information if you can't find it. I wish I had kept written copies!

C70%
by C####:

I use this app for every single project that hits my needles. It is excellent, simple, offers everything I need, and means I don't have to print out patterns. Could not be happier.

C70%
by C####:

I'm only rating because the game is cute and a fun way to waste time. I haven't used any other part of this app yet but I thought people might want to know that there is a cute little game to play in the app. Would like love it if this app came to the Apple store as well as I used my iPad for my knitting and crochet needs more then my phone.

J70%
by J####:

I loved this app on my S5 but I just upgraded to a S8 and my files won't transfer. When I try the app closes. I hate the thought that I'll have to spend time manually moving ALL my info over.

C70%
by C####:

I found this ap to be very handy with keeping track of all my needles and hooks. My stash has never been so organized and my projects are all at my finger tips

N70%
by N####:

Love this app! So much easier than all the random note I scribble on my patterns. And I like seeing how much time I actually work on a project. You definitely need a "share" button so I can tell friends about the app with a link attached.

C70%
by C####:

Misrepresented what it does. It's just a place to store your own projects and counts.

T70%
by T####:

Just getting started but so far I love it. First project that I really needed a row counter, also put all my hooks in so I'd know what not to buy, might put my yarn stash in. All in all very handy little app.

C70%
by C####:

Added my stash as I really need to organise that but you need to add a couple of extra fields: one to record the amount of each yarn in the stash; another to record what the yarn is made of (ie wool.2 cotton, etc).

C70%
by C####:

I love having a timer and row counter in one! It's great for when I make custom orders. I also love that I can set a repeat counter while also keeping the row counter going. Perfect knit & crochet app!

C70%
by C####:

It's nice to have my needle inventory always with me, and the charts too. I just wish that they offered a different color choice besides baby blue.

Z70%
by Z####:

This app is almost perfect. Would have given it 5 if getting the patterns into it was easier than using screenshots. It would be very helpful if pattern files (e.g. pdf's) could be used and/or a hyperlink to the pattern web page. As I have purchased the app It would also be helpful to sync it across devices.

Y70%
by Y####:

I love using this app, but when I bought a new phone I lost my needle and yarn inventories. While the feature is convenient, I don't know if its worth the time and effort to to manually add them back. Wish there was another way to save them.

E70%
by E####:

I've been using this for awhile and purchased the pro version. I really like the app. I use it on my Kindle when I'm home, but it only has wi-fi. I travel often and like to crochet in the car or plane. It would be perfect if I could synch my devices so I could continue my projects no matter which device I'm using.

C70%
by C####:

I use this for every project I'm making. I usually have a couple going at one time, its wonderful for keeping track of hooks, rows, progress and being able to have the pattern as I go all together is the best. No problem so far. Grateful I found knitting buddy!

C70%
by C####:

Love this app! Just what a person like me needs who has to many projects started at one time and forget what hook size and sometimes pattern I'd been using on a particular project. LOVE THIS APP!

C70%
by C####:

Just started using this, but so far, I really like it. The counter function is so useful. I can finally complete patterns! It's easy to use and I like that I can have all the information for my yarns so that I don't have to keep the labels.

C70%
by C####:

Love this app! Honestly, keeping an inventory of my hooks and needles, and the project page and trackers are so handy. Having my row counter, repeats, even the patterns I'm using all in one place. thos is probably my most used app on my phone.

K70%
by K####:

This app is very useful to calculate stitches to increase or decrease. I use it to keep complete record of my all projects. Moreover, there are much more useful features. Thank you

N70%
by N####:

First page asks binary genders only. Not very welcoming.

J70%
by J####:

Fab app lots of information held v helpful when your out and about take this instead of knitting pattern also has a log of all my yarn and needles

C70%
by C####:

I'm loving this app. I paid for the full version and it was so worth it. Love that I can have my pattern right on my stitch counter page.

Q70%
by Q####:

This app works as advertised . It can't toggle between pattern pages, but that is a minor nit. Good program .

T70%
by T####:

You need to have a third choice of likeing both crochet and knitting then I would have given five stars
