### 5/5 — Wonderful App

*2026-06-11*

I’ve been using this app for the last few years, and I love it so much.  I’ve created many sweaters using it.  My favourite way is to knit in the round, from the top down, and this app is great in explaining it.  I also love that complex knitting is given row by numbered row.  It makes it so much easier to count off the rows as they’re completed.  Before this I used to use Knitting Wizard, but it wasn’t available anymore that I could find.  This is indeed a wonderful app to replace it and I’m so happy that it works with iOS.  Thank you so much for creating it!

### 5/5 — Top

C’est un application très utile

### 5/5 — Contact

*2026-01-17, version 13.0.01*

Trying to get in contact with the developer but to no avail

### 3/5 — Measures wrong for a standard gauge knitting machine

*2026-01-07*

Sweater was 4 inches too short with the measurements. So I had to measure the 16” of knitted fabric and recalculate in order for it to fit. There should be a needle size to choose from on machine knit. As the pattern works on my 9mm machine but completely out on my 4.5 mm machine.

### 3/5 — UI is painful!

*2025-12-03*

Before purchasing, I looked at reviews. One reviewer complained about the popups at EVERY. SINGLE. STEP. OF. THE. WAY. You replied that it was only for the first pattern. Nu-uh!! EVERY. FRIKKIN. STEP OF THE WAY. For multiple patterns. And what makes it 10 times worse is that you can’t start a garment and save part way through. So, if you don’t have ALL of the information ready to enter, you either have to continue, putting some fake, placeholder numbers in (hoping that when you go back to put in the right numbers that you catch all of the fake ones, and don’t miss any, thus ending up following a pattern that is wrong), or you lose everything you’ve entered up to that point. This was also mentioned by the same reviewer - THREE YEARS AGO, and no changes made. Frustrating and disappointing.

I will add that after completing the lengthy process of entering all of that information, the final message is a fairly cryptic one about copying the new information. When I clicked on that, which seemed like the next thing I was being asked to do . . . ALL OF MY ENTRIES DISAPPEARED. AAARRRGGGHHHHH!!!!😤😤😖😖

### 3/5 — Trying the app out

*2025-10-07*

I was able to input measurements and save the inputs but it would be nice to have explanations of some of the measurements. How exactly do you measure underarm depth? The other issue is every time I input a measurement a pop up screen appears and I have to click ok. Every time. So I created a pattern and we’ll see how it goes. 

I started knitting and I love the instructions so far! I am knitting a tshirt in fingering weight so I hope I did the measurements correctly. Will update as I go along.

The other issue is every time I input a measurement a pop up screen appears and I have to click ok. Every time. So I created a pattern and we’ll see how it goes. It also does not appear to be one piece top down based on the drawing, but I haven’t started knitting yet. I’m not terribly impressed so far.

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2025-01-16*

I use this app for machine knitting and it has been so helpful! Genius!

### 3/5 — Please fix data entry screen!

*2025-01-15*

The program doesnt save until you have entered all the pattern data and ive tried to put everything in five times. If you switch apps or go back a screen it deletes. Please allow partial saving or fix this!

### 5/5 — Amazing

*2025-01-13*

I am a hand spinner and have been needing something like this app for a long, long time.   It is such a wonderful tool for folks whose gauge just doesn’t fit the “Ravelry” mode. No offense there I love Ravelry but have spent far too many late nights hours trying to find a pattern to fit my numbers.   Thank you, thank you, thank you …and for making your app affordable too!  God bless ya!
