Love!

Bravo! Great app. So functional to have to pattern at my finger tips. I especially appreciated being able to customize the pattern features before starting and having it calculate the correct stitch counts.
I cannot tell you how many tattered up flax sweater patterns Iโ€™ve had with circled sizes and calculations up the side. This is so much better.

Good but wish it worked without internet connection

Wish the patters were stored locally so I could use on the airplane

Amazing! Useful! Efficient!

This is an amazing app. To be able to customize the pattern and view support sections along the way is ingenious. Iโ€™ve followed Tin Can for a long time and this app only solidifies how great an operation they are!

New format is exciting!

Love TCK and the new pattern-in-app format is exciting.

Response from developer

Thanks! We've got so many plans for improvements (and additional patterns!) but I'm glad to hear you can see the potential! ~ Emily

Genius!

Iโ€™ve been having trouble getting back into knitting, and this app was just what I needed. I love the way it walks you through the pattern and adjusts based on your yarn weight and selection of options! Itโ€™s a simple, very smart design and guarantees Iโ€™ll be knitting more TCK patterns.

Love the design

Itโ€™s simple to use; an intuitive design. No more highlighter pens! I love it. Looking forward to your future plans. ๐Ÿ˜€

Thanks Cynthia! ~ Emily

Bugs

I was excited to see this to start my first sweater without having to circle all the numbers for my size. But this morning, after finishing the collar, I was looking at the pdf of the pattern and Iโ€™ve found numerous places where the app lists different numbers from the pdf (cast on for collar and pick up for yoke). So disappointing to have to start over. I hope this gets fixed!

Response from developer

So glad you've given the app a try! We've re-graded some of the patterns in the app to add all 3 weights, and made a few adjustments, so the current PDFs and the app patterns are not an exact match. We'll be re-issuing the PDFs in the next couple of months to match the app. They're BOTH right (tech edited, numerically correct), but once you begin, stick with either the app OR the PDF, don't try to jump between them. I hope this clarifies things ~ Emily

Amazing leap forward!

Knitting apps are often disappointing. Not this one so far. Only just downloaded it, but it navigates so well. Only gave it 4 stars coz I canโ€™t manage my paid for patterns here. Looking forward to seeing this develop and grow. Well done Team TCK!!!

Easy to use, good info

I already loved The Simple Collection so itโ€™s great to have these quality free patterns available on my phone! I used the app to look up a tutorial on short rows for my current WIP - very handy. The app is easy to use, well laid out for comfortable reading, and navigation is clear. Recommend!

Excellent App

So far I havenโ€™t ran into any bugs. Allows you to just follow your size and allows you to have multiple projects going. Am really excited to see how they integrate their other designs as I have several of their patterns.
