Rows & Stitches: Row Counter
Crochet & Knit Pattern Tracker
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Rows & Stitches is a crochet and knitting row counter you can use without unlocking your phone. Add a row from your Lock Screen, Apple Watch, or Home Screen — and never lose your place mid-row.
One-time unlock. No subscription, no ads, no account.
WHY MAKERS SWITCH
• Count from your Lock Screen. A Live Activity and Dynamic Island counter let you add a row without unlocking your phone or leaving your show.
• Count on your Apple Watch when your phone's nearby. Tap or use the Digital Crown, with haptic feedback for quiet, eyes-free counting.
• Pay once, yours forever. A single Lifetime unlock — no monthly fee, no "your patterns are now locked" surprise.
• Never lose a row. Free iCloud sync keeps every project, counter, and note backed up and in step across iPhone, iPad, and Watch.
COUNT THE WAY YOUR PATTERN WORKS
• Multiple counters per project for rows, repeats, and stitch sections.
• Milestone markers so you know the moment a repeat is done.
• Shake to undo and confirm-before-decrease, so a stray tap never costs you your place.
• Tap-anywhere counting and a large-counter mode for fast, glanceable rows.
YOUR PATTERNS, IN ONE PLACE
• Read your pattern and counter side by side on one screen.
• Import PDFs, scan a printed pattern with your camera, or save a pattern from the web.
• Turn written instructions into tappable, step-by-step rows that highlight where you are (Lifetime).
• Attach a note to any row and see it the moment you arrive (Lifetime).
• Start with 50 beginner-friendly crochet patterns built right in.
BUILT TO BE READ COMFORTABLY
• Choose Lexend or Atkinson Hyperlegible — fonts designed for easy reading — plus adjustable line and letter spacing.
• Full Dynamic Type, a real dark mode, and high-contrast visuals.
• Reduce-motion, focus mode, and gentle haptics for a calm, distraction-free count.
A SESSION TIMER THAT RESPECTS YOUR FLOW
• Time your making sessions and keep the screen awake while you work.
• Choose what the timer does when you step away.
FREE INCLUDES
Up to 10 projects, five counters each, Apple Watch, widgets, Live Activities, iCloud sync, pattern import, and every accessibility feature.
LIFETIME UNLOCK ADDS
Unlimited projects, step-by-step pattern parsing, per-row notes, and Family Sharing — one purchase, no subscription.
Made for crocheters and knitters, and just as at home with cross-stitch, amigurumi, granny squares, weaving, and any project counted in rows.

Fixes in this update:
• Your projects no longer disappear after restarting your iPhone.
• iCloud sync now works — your projects appear on all your devices, iPhone and iPad.
• PDF patterns sync across your devices, not just the one you added them on.
• Apple Pencil drawing on PDF patterns works again.
• Long project notes are easier to read on smaller screens.
Plus everything new in 1.6:
• Insights — a new stats screen: your lifetime rows, time spent, and finished projects, with a collage of your makes and a year in review you can share.
• Your Pattern Library — every pattern you import, from websites, PDFs, or the starter collection, now lives in one browsable place. Save patterns for later, search them, and start a project from any of them. Free and unlimited.
• Web imports show just the pattern — paste a blog link and get the pattern: materials, rows, finishing. Not the ads, life story, or comment section. Works in every language, and the original page is a tap away.
• Count in rounds, not rows — open a pattern worked in continuous rounds and the app offers to switch, one tap for "Round 4 · st 12 of 24" instead of a flat tally
• Know a round came out right — finish a round and the app quietly says if your count differs from what the pattern expects
• Patterns with parts — tick off each arm, leg and ear as you make it, make 2 included, then an assembly checklist when every part is done
• Mixed patterns count correctly — a blanket worked flat with an amigurumi head now counts each part its own way
• Five new amigurumi patterns — a bear, cat, octopus, turtle and whale, written by hand and translated into 13 languages
