Fibecheck vs Loom

Fibecheck is THE app for knitters and crocheters who want to keep patterns, counters, yarn, and progress together. Import patterns and keep them ready for the project you are making. On iPad, mark up patterns with Apple Pencil to highlight rows, cross out completed sections, and add handwritten notes while preserving the original file. Export an annotated copy whenever you want to share or save your progress. Use project-linked row and round counters to stay on track, organize your yarn stash, reserve yarn to a project, and scan yarn labels to capture details faster. When you want feedback, create a shareable Fibecheck card from your project and photo. Fibecheck Pro unlocks saved markup, annotated export, unlimited projects, unlimited patterns, unlimited stash, unlimited yarn label scan, cloud sync, and premium share export. Built for makers who want a calmer, more focused knitting and crochet workflow on iPhone and iPad.

Loom is a private knitting and crochet tracker for the work that usually lives in scattered notes, screenshots, and paper row counters. Plan projects with pattern names, designers, recipients, gauges, tools, row goals, and notes. Track active rows and repeats while you knit or crochet, keep a searchable yarn stash with weight, fibre, lot, yardage, skeins, and storage location, and store pattern references alongside each project. Loom is local-first and does not require an account. The free tier supports a focused starter library. Loom Pro unlocks unlimited projects, unlimited yarn stash entries, pattern attachments, custom project backgrounds, and CSV/JSON export for makers who want a long-term craft archive. Features: - Knitting and crochet project journal - Row and repeat progress tracking - Yarn stash inventory - Pattern library notes - Finished-project stats - CSV and JSON export - Private local storage with no required login Loom Pro is available as an auto-renewable monthly or yearly subscription.
