Reviews of YarnBuddy

This app is amazing and easy to use

Definitely the best app ever

Best knitting app

This app is truly the best option for managing knitting projects. It has a good integration with Ravelry to pull patterns in. It makes following a pattern and stitch/row tracking a breeze. I would not be half the knitter I am without this app. The developer clearly cares about the details, and I’m so grateful for it.

The BEST app for knitting and crochet

I downloaded this app after seeing it suggested on a knitting blog. I have used it ever since. I’ve tried other apps for keeping track of my knitting and crochet projects but this one is far and away the best. The features are fabulous and the visuals are great.. as a visual person, this is important to me. I love that there’s a quick counter if you don’t want to create a project but you can also do multiple counters within projects. There’s a yarn stash feature to keep track of what yarn you have and what you’re using on projects… this will even scan barcodes so you don’t have to manually enter yarn details (this doesn’t always work but I appreciate that it does sometimes). I recently found that the counter can be used via my Apple Watch which is the just icing on the cake. I never write reviews for apps but this one is so fabulous that I wanted to. My only suggestion to the developers is that I wish you could drag the notes on projects to reorder them. Other than that, I think the creators of this app have thought of everything! I’d give it more stars if I could!
