About Yarrn!

Yarrn! is a new free app that allows you to access your knitting and crochet projects on http://www.ravelry.com

The great folks at Ravelry offer access to their data to anyone willing to build an app and so, while my lovely wife is knitting the next shawl or hat, I go on and knit her an app for that. In the current version you can see your projects and update the progress as well as upload photos. Also your stashes and the list of favorited projects and patterns can be accessed from the app.

This is just the beginning, I hope to add a lot more in the future. If you like what you see and would like to see more, don't hesitate to shoot me an email with your wishes what to add to the app next.

Have fun with your needles and yarrn!

P.S. Yarrn! is OpenSource available at https://github.com/KoljaTM/Yarrn

Good clean UI. Basic needed features. Works consistently well. I'm glad to still see occasional upgrades and development. I give it 5 stars for being a well-built app that the dev happily maintains. I don't agree with other reviewers that compare apps to full websites or even mobile web page versions of such.

D70%
by D####:

I had this app for several years and it was perfect for adding pictures to my projects and stash, but since I re-downloaded it on my new phone it constantly takes me to the ravelry page and I can no longer use the actual app. Very disappointing, but leaving my 5 star review because I enjoyed the app a lot while it worked.

D70%
by D####:

I adored this app until I ported my old phone (apps & data) to my new phone. Now it will only take me to the Ravelry site and not perform as an app at all. I am very disappointed and am hoping for suggestions on how to get it to show me my projects again..

Q70%
by Q####:

I wish there were a "my library" feature.

Y70%
by Y####:

The developer's heart is in the right place, but this app doesn't work. Lots of blank screens and missing fields.

I have tried to download a pattern I am working on. Since last update not downloading

R70%
by R####:

I love being able to edit and add photos to my projects since one of my kids is always hogging the laptop. ;-) Would love to see a paid version to get rid of the ads.

R70%
by R####:

Would be five if could save patterns to favorites, access queue, and add to stash.

Just installed and ran thru. First impression...sweet! Quick, easy to use, clean. Sort is awesome. Now to put it thru it's paces and see how she holds up. I'll get back to you.

X70%
by X####:

I like how this works with Ravelry. Updates are good. I'm pleased with the app overall.

E70%
by E####:

Lacking a good search, limited in access to most of the Raverly website. Ease in uploads. Not my favorite but for a free app it allows basic functionality. However, use of mobile website without the app is still preferred by this crocheter/knitter.

D70%
by D####:

After trying to figure out what it was that was making my phone battery die, settings informed me it was this app (which I hadn't even started after rebooting my phone). Since uninstalling, yes, it was the culprit.

by K####:

The app is ok if your updating a project page or your stash but for pattern searches when your on the go it sucks. Also the forum feature needs work too. I find myself rereading the same threads because the app fails to properly keep track of what is new posts and what I have read. I find myself using the full website for pattern searches and reading the forums.

K70%
by K####:

What good is it if I can't add what I'm working on from the app?

K70%
by K####:

Cannot access library where I save all my patterns, less flexible and usable than the mobile site

K70%
by K####:

This app is fantastic! It makes it so easy to access my Ravelry projects. I'd like to see more of my queue in the future, but as it stands I find this app is wonderful.

Useless!

L70%
by L####:

I love this app. Just what us Ravelry addicts needed to keep us mobile!

N70%
by N####:

Is weird. It will find a few things related to the word I type in then it's like it just throws up and puts in any old thing it wants in the search results. How nice would it be to not have to have 3 separate apps for one dang website? This one is good for adding projects. Between this, Ravulous, and KnitWits I'm about to pull my hair out. Why doesn't anyone else seem to have that problem?

Z70%

Very clean and easy to use.

G70%
by G####:

Clean, fast GUI. Intuitive menu choices. Love the opensource idea. Looking forward to seeing more. Developer is responsive to feedback. Update: like the bigger photos, and the new search options, also like the completion indicator.

Would be great to create new projekts with the App.
