A calm craft tracker. Start a timer when you pick up your needles, or log a session after you finish. Watch your hours, streaks and finished objects add up - with no ads, no interruptions, no pressure. Cabled is built for makers who want to remember the time they spend on their crafts and enjoy detailed insights into their hobbies. TRACK EVERY SESSION Start a timer when you sit down knit, crochet, or stitch. Pause mid-row, pick up later, or log time after the fact. Cabled reminds you if a session is still running so nothing disappears. YOUR PATTERN, RIGHT IN YOUR SESSION Open your PDF pattern while you work. Mark your charts with movable guides, zoom in on details, and keep your Row Counters floating on top. No AI parsing, no copyright violations - just simpler tracking, all in one place. ROW COUNTERS THAT KEEP UP Add up to 5 colour-coded row counters per project, with optional targets. Reorder or rename them during a session. Edit them later if you counted ahead. See and count rows from your lock screen. TIME BY SECTION Tag your sessions by section, like yoke, sleeves, or seaming, and see how long you really spend on sleeve island. EVERY CRAFT, ONE APP Knitting, crochet, Tunisian crochet, embroidery, cross stitch, sewing, quilting, English paper piecing, sashiko, spinning, weaving and needle felting. Choose your craft at the start of a project and the app uses the right language. PROJECTS FROM CAST ON TO FO Keep works in progress in one place. Move a project through its life: active, hibernating, finished object, or frogged. Add photos, notes and row counters so the next session starts where you left off. RAVELRY BUILT IN Search Ravelry's pattern library when you start a Project and the details will fill themselves in. When you finish, send your Project, photos and Notes to Ravelry in one tap. TRACK YOUR STASH Keep all your supplies in one place, with quantities, colourways and photos. Import your Stash from Ravelry, link materials to Projects as you use them, and adjust remaining quantities when you finish a Project. SEE THE YEAR YOU MADE Daily, monthly and lifetime stats that evolve with you. Track personal bests, craft streaks, and share your progress with Cabled Cards. Unlock achievements along the way. FREE & PRO ACCESS Cabled is free for up to 3 active projects. Upgrade to Pro to unlock unlimited projects, PDF patterns in your sessions, stash tracking with Ravelry import, and private community access (coming soon). FREE 7-day trial for new subscribers. Made by a knitter (me!), for makers. Cabled Pro is available as a monthly or annual auto-renewing subscription. Payment is charged to your Apple ID at confirmation of purchase.
