YarnUP - Crochet For Beginners
Patterns, AI tools & projects
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Yarn UP is a calm, modern home for everything you crochet +350 ready-to-make patterns, AI tools that actually understand stitches, and a quiet project tracker that remembers your spot.
Whether you're picking up your first hook or finishing your fiftieth amigurumi, Yarn UP helps you focus on the loop in front of you.
--- WHAT'S INSIDE ---
• 350+ CURATED PATTERNS
Amigurumi, scarves, blankets, hats, gloves, bags, baby gifts and more. Every pattern has a difficulty badge, materials list, and step-by-step instructions written for real makers.
• AI PATTERN STUDIO
Describe what you want a pumpkin coaster, a slouchy beanie, a granny-square cardigan and Yarn UP generates a complete pattern with row counts, stitch counts, and a chart preview. Refine, save, and start crocheting.
• PATTERN SCANNER
Snap a photo of any crochet piece and Yarn UP identifies its construction, suggests stitches used, and rebuilds an editable pattern you can follow.
• STITCH EXPLAINER
Paste any pattern row. Tap any stitch token. Get plain-English instructions, step-by-step tips, a how-it-looks chart symbol, and a video tutorial. No more decoding "[sc, inc] × 6" alone.
• PATTERN ERROR CHECKER
Drop in someone else's pattern and Yarn UP audits the math row counts, increases, decreases, repeats. It tells you exactly which row is off and what was probably intended.
• YARN SUBSTITUTION
Out of the exact yarn the pattern calls for? Yarn UP suggests close matches by weight, fiber, drape, and gauge with brand names you can actually buy.
• CROCHET CHAT
Voice or text. Ask anything: "What's the difference between dc and tr?" "Help me read this row." "Suggest a beginner blanket pattern." The chat understands attached photos too.
• SMART PROJECT TRACKER
Row counters, per-row notes, mistake flags, checkpoints, time-lapse generator, and a chart view that highlights your current row. Yarn UP remembers exactly where you left off even across multiple projects.
• STITCH GUIDE WITH VIDEOS
Every essential stitch chain, single crochet, double crochet, treble, magic ring, decreases, increases, special stitches — with step-by-step video tutorials, scrub-to-find, A-B loop, and mirror modes.
• TOOLS THAT SAVE TIME
Yarn yardage calculator, gauge calculator, pattern resizer, hook converter (US/UK/metric), tension tester, color palette designer, standalone counters, and yarn-weight quick reference.
