YarnPath
Crochet & knitting · coming soon to iOS and Android

Learn every stitch. Finish every project.

YarnPath is your AI crochet and knitting companion. Snap a photo of a stitch for step-by-step help, ask the coach when you are stuck, and follow any pattern one row at a time.

Works with US and UK pattern terms.

📷 My granny square is curling at the corners. What did I do wrong?
Your corners look like 2 dc instead of 3 dc, ch 2, 3 dc. Too few stitches pulls them in. Undo to the last corner and add the chain-2 space. Want me to show it step by step?

Everything you need between the first chain and the last bind-off

Photo stitch help

Take a photo of your work. YarnPath names the stitch, spots common mistakes like twisted stitches or missed increases, and shows how to fix them.

AI coach

Ask in plain words: "what does sk2p mean?", "why is my edge wavy?", "how much yarn for a throw?" You get an answer for your project, not a generic article.

Patterns, row by row

Import a PDF, a photo or a link. YarnPath turns it into a checklist, explains every abbreviation and keeps your place.

Row and stitch counter

One tap per row, separate counters for sleeves and body, and reminders when an increase or decrease is due.

Resize with your gauge

Enter your swatch and YarnPath recalculates stitch counts for a different size or yarn weight.

Yarn stash and projects

Log your yarn by weight, fibre and yardage, see what is enough for which pattern, and keep notes and photos for every project.

How YarnPath works

  1. Pick or import a pattern. Start from a beginner project or add one you already have.
  2. Follow it row by row. Each row is spelled out, with the stitch shown and the counter beside it.
  3. Stuck? Snap a photo or ask. The coach looks at your work and tells you what to do next.
  4. Finish and keep notes. Your yarn, hook or needle size and changes are saved for next time.

Questions

What is YarnPath?

YarnPath is a mobile app for crochet and knitting. You can photograph a stitch or a mistake and get step-by-step help, ask an AI coach questions in plain words, follow a pattern one row at a time with a built-in row counter, and keep track of your yarn stash and projects.

Is YarnPath for beginners?

Yes. YarnPath explains abbreviations as you go, shows each stitch step by step and lets you ask the coach anything, so you can start with no experience. Experienced makers use it for the row counter, pattern notes and stash.

Does YarnPath work for both crochet and knitting?

Yes. Every feature works for crochet and knitting, and patterns can use US or UK terms.

Can YarnPath read my existing patterns?

Yes. Add a PDF, a photo of a printed page or a web link, and YarnPath turns it into a row-by-row checklist with the abbreviations explained and your place kept.

How much does YarnPath cost?

YarnPath will be free to download, with the row counter, stash and guides free to use. Pricing for the AI features will be announced at launch.
