Crochet Pal: Row Counter App
Pattern & Stitch Tracker
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.
Turn any crochet pattern into a step by step instruction — on your iPhone and Apple Watch.
CrochetPal removes the frustration of losing your place. Import a pattern from a web link or a photo, and we'll turn it into a clean step-by-step checklist. Every stitch, every row, every round — counted for you, hands-free if you want.
▶ IMPORT IN SECONDS
• Paste any pattern URL — we extract just the instructions, no ads or banner clutter
• Snap a photo of a printed pattern, magazine, or PDF page
• Smart parsing handles abbreviations: sc, dc, hdc, tr, ch, sl st, BLO, FLO, mr, inc, dec
• Works across English, Spanish, and Japanese pattern notation
▶ TAP TO ADVANCE — NEVER LOSE YOUR PLACE
• One tap = one stitch counted
• Auto-counts stitches per row and rows per round
• Visual progress bar shows exactly where you are
• Pause and pick back up days later — your position is saved
▶ APPLE WATCH COMPANION
• Mirror your active project to your wrist
• Advance with a tap, Double-Tap, or AssistiveTouch — keep both hands on your hook
• Haptic feedback confirms every stitch
• Keep crocheting when your iPhone is across the room
▶ BUILT FOR HOW YOU ACTUALLY CROCHET
• Amigurumi: precise stitch counts in tiny magic-ring rounds
• Granny squares: track each square as its own project
• Blankets & afghans: long repeated rows without losing count
• Garments: shaping rows and stitch markers handled
• Beginners: every abbreviation expanded into plain English
• Pattern testers: clean view to verify counts against the designer's intent
▶ PRIVACY-FIRST
• Projects live on your device, not on our servers
• No account required to get started
• No ads, no tracking pixels, no pop-ups mid-row
