About

Threads count

Features
Read full description

Threads count is a row counter for people whose hands are full of yarn. The app is built for real knitting and crochet sessions: quick to open, easy to read from across the table, and useful when you are working from a pattern. Version 2.2 adds Yarn Runway: a loop-perimeter yarn planner that totals project pieces against your stash, remaining skeins, and a live “will this yarn last?” verdict. Open it from the Runway button on the project counter. Ways to count: - Big tap counter: tap the large counting surface to advance, long-press to undo, and use haptics to keep rhythm without staring at the screen. - Action Button and Shortcuts: advance, undo, or switch counters from Shortcuts on supported iPhones. - Lock Screen, Dynamic Island, StandBy, and widgets: keep the current row visible outside the app. - Multiple counters: track rows, repeats, decreases, sleeves, panels, or any other count inside one project. Pattern-aware tools: - Yarn Runway: plan pieces, total yardage against stash, and see remaining skeins on the counter. - Pattern Navigator: paste row notes such as "Row 12: begin shaping" and Threads count shows the matching instruction on the counter screen as you advance. - Repeat tracking: set an 8-row, 12-row, or chart repeat and see the row inside the current repeat. - Row reminders: add one-time or recurring reminders for color changes, shaping, lifelines, or measuring. - Gauge & Cast-On calculator: turn a 4-inch swatch into cast-on counts, row counts, gauge substitutions, shaping instructions, and rough yarn planning. Project tools: - Track project photos, notes, targets, and completion status. - Log timed sessions and see rows-per-hour and minutes-per-day charts. - Keep a yarn stash and needle or hook inventory on-device. - Work offline with no account, no subscription, no ads, and no analytics. Threads count runs on iPhone and iPad with iOS 17 or later. Action Button use requires supported hardware and a Shortcut assignment in Settings.
