About
You put the needles down. When you pick them up, which row were you on?
Guess wrong and you rip back to find out. Purlmark holds the row — and it holds what the row says, because it reads the pattern you already bought.
Paste it in, or open the PDF. Purlmark finds the rows, the repeats and the nested repeats, then tells you what to knit on the row you're on. No re-typing, no counting in your head, no losing your place when the phone locks.
MADE FOR THE ROW YOU'RE ON
• Tap anywhere on the screen to count. One hand, needles in the other.
• The instruction for this row sits under the number, so you stop flipping back.
• Repeats are walked for you — "Rows 9–40: repeat rows 1–8 four more times" becomes "1–8 · 2/5" and it counts down.
• Undo is one tap. Nothing is lost because you tapped twice.
BEFORE YOU CAST ON
• A gauge calculator that tells you how many stitches to cast on for your hands, not the designer's.
• Log the yarn you have and Purlmark says whether a pattern is covered, or how many skeins short you are — before you start, not halfway up a sleeve.
YOUR OWN PATTERNS
• Open a PDF you bought. A ruler sits under the row you're on and follows you down the page.
• Photograph a paper pattern and Purlmark reads the rows off it.
• Written for several sizes? Pick yours and every row reads in your size only.
ON YOUR WRIST
• Count from the Apple Watch and the row is on your phone when you pick it up.
YOURS, ON YOUR DEVICE
• No account. No server. Nothing is uploaded — not your patterns, not your photos.
• Make a copy of everything in one file, and put it back on a new phone.
Purlmark Pro is a single purchase, not a subscription. The free app counts one project and reads patterns you paste, with no time limit and no advertising. What you already counted stays open either way.
