Try out TabletWeaver! TabletWeaver is an app for designing, editing and visualizing tablet-weaving (card-weaving) patterns on your iPhone or iPad. It brings traditional tablet weaving together with digital design tools so you can build your patterns before you weave and compare options easily. Weavers, textile designers and craft practitioners can set up a pattern, preview turns and preview the result before they weave. Card threading, hole colors and the full workspace open with a subscription. TabletWeaver can be downloaded free. Without a subscription you can explore the editor and the basic design tools and the preview shows the first 20 picks. A monthly subscription from the App Store unlocks saving and loading projects, printing, PNG export, the pattern catalog, extra preview options, the threading-direction table and the full workspace.
