Is There an App to Count Crochet Stitches?

A general counter app can track crochet stitches, but the useful distinction is whether it also saves the count with the right project.

A counter is only part of the workflow

An app can replace tally marks or a clicker for a running count. For pattern work, it helps if the app also gives you a place to record the row or round, expected stitch count, and a note about the next repeat. Otherwise, you may remember the number but lose why you were counting it.

What SkeinHub currently supports

SkeinHub keeps a counter and project progress in the same workspace as a pattern and notes. It supports row and round project modes, plus step and repeat controls in the counter. That makes it useful for tracking a stitch count while working, but it is not a stitch-diagram recognition tool and it does not check your physical stitches automatically.

See the crochet row counter feature and the guide to counting stitches without losing your place.

A simple test before you commit

Count ten stitches, leave the app, reopen it, and check that the value is still attached to the intended project. Then try an undo and a manual correction. These small checks reveal whether the app fits your actual making routine.

In short: Yes, but choose a counter that lets you save context such as the project, row or round, and the expected stitch count.

Put it into practice

Keep your pattern and progress together.

SkeinHub gives each project a place for its pattern, notes, counter, and saved progress.
