WeavingGem is an app for weavers who want to design patterns and effortlessly move through each phase of their weaving project – from planning and setup through warping, threading and weaving. Large visual beads show your exact warp end, threading group, or treadle pick, so counting stays clear and readable at the loom. Design and edit weaving drafts right in the app, or import patterns from your favourite weaving software. Then track every step hands-free as you wind, thread, and weave. DESIGN & PLAN Unified Draft Canvas: Paint threading, tie-up, and treadling and watch the woven cloth preview update in real time. Yarn & Color Matching: Tint warp and weft bars to match your actual yarn stash.
