Stitch Scroll: Row Counter

Stitch Scroll is a knitting and crochet row counter that reads the pattern you already own. Photograph the pages, or choose photos or a PDF, and your pattern becomes rows you count with one tap, with the designer's own printed line beside every row.

No ads. No subscription.

Count with confidence
• One big button: tap Row done and Stitch Scroll moves you to the next row or round.
• Every row shows how many stitches you should end with.
• Repeats are counted for you, like "Repeat 3 of 6".
• For "work until it measures 2 in" rows, tap Reached it when you get there.
• Lost your place? See all rows and tap one to jump back. Undo the last tap any time.
• Keep the screen on while you count.

Reminders, a second counter and notes
• Set a row reminder for every few rows or for one row, like "Move your stitch marker up". It shows right on the counter.
• Use the second counter for repeats inside a row, with an optional target.
• Keep notes for each project: yarn, hook, needles and the changes you made.
• Time spent is kept for you while you count.

Checked before you start
• Stitch Scroll checks the stitch counts row by row before you cast on.
• Crossed-out numbers, notes in the margin and lines that could mean two things are shown to you first. You decide.
• It never fills in a line it could not read.

Made for real patterns
• Pick your size once, and every count and measurement shows for your size only.
• Tap any stitch, like sc or k2tog, to see what it means. The pattern's own abbreviations list comes first.
• Charts show the row you are on with a highlighted band, and which way to read it.
• Works with printed patterns, PDF patterns and handwritten notes, from amigurumi to hats, blankets and dishcloths.

Stitch Guide, built in
• Search common crochet and knitting abbreviations.
• US and UK crochet terms side by side.
• Crochet hook and knitting needle sizes in metric, US and old UK.
• Yarn weights from lace to jumbo, with typical gauge, needles and hooks.
• Six free printable cheat sheets in US Letter and A4, kept in the app so they work without internet.

Celebrate every finish
• When you work the last row, see your time spent and rows counted.
• Add a photo of what you made and share a project card. The card shows your project, never a copy of the pattern.
• Put a pattern on your shelf when you take a break. Your place is kept.

Your patterns stay yours
Stitch Scroll reads the pages of a pattern you own and turns them into rows you can count. It never invents a pattern or shares yours.
• It reads only the pattern you photograph or import.
• Your patterns, page photos and counts are never shared or sold.
• Scanning needs a free sign-in with Apple or Google, right when you first scan. The sample patterns, the Stitch Guide and the printables work without an account.
• When you are signed in, your patterns, page photos, counts and notes sync between your devices.
• Delete your account and its cloud copy any time in Settings.

Simple, honest pricing
• One purchase, with 3 Scan Credits included.
• Each Scan Credit reads up to 5 pages of instructions. Cover and photo pages are free.
• Need more? Scan Credits come in packs of 1, 5 or 10.
• Scan Credits never expire and stay with your account.
• Try the 4 sample patterns free, no Scan Credit needed.
• No ads and no subscription, ever.

Use it as your row and stitch counter, your knitting and crochet pattern reader, and your project tracker for every pattern you own.
