StashBot: Knitting & Crochet

What a great little app! It'll be really handy for yarn shopping and is also a useful tool for estimating when designing or improvising items. I rarely give 5 stars until I've given something a really good try but I can't see anything about it that's not user-friendly and clear. Nice simple design. Great stuff!

Stashbot is absolutely indispensible when shopping for yarn. I refer to it constantly when I find a special yarn or great deal and have a general idea what I’d like to make, but no specific pattern. After all, then you have the flexibility to find the right pattern AFTER you swatch!

II usually knit my sweaters and socks without a pattern with the help of the book, “Knitting 101” for general size and measurent info. My sweaters are usually raglans or circular yoke so once you understand the formula with these types of sweaters (and that goes for socks, too) I find a pattern is not necessary unless the pattern I am knitting has a color work chart I want to use. I use this app as a jumping off point when I need to know how much yarn I will need. Very helpful indeed. Many thanks, STASHBOT, for developing this app! ❤️🧶❤️

This app has saved me HUNDREDS of dollars! Generally—especially if you’re a beginner—you either buy too much or not enough. If you like to design, this app takes the guesswork out of figuring how much yarn you need for your project. I make my swatch, look up the article along with the size, and bingo! Money saved! PLEASE get this app!

This app is easy to use. When I don’t have a pattern in mind but I want to buy enough yarn for a future project, I always turn to this app for an estimate of how much yarn to buy. I can quickly see how far a potential purchase will go and decide if I want to make a large or small project. This is helpful when eyeballing some more expensive skeins.

Love the app. Would really love to switch between knit and crochet. Add cowls or different with scarves for cowls.

This has been a valuable tool when lured by yarn in the LYS when i don’t have a pattern in mind.

I think this app is amazing and works very smoothly, but I so badly wish it had more categories/options! I find myself making a lot of knit items for summer, too, and would love to see shirts, tanks, etc as an option as well!

I was looking for an app that could replace the “how much do I need” cards that were never with me - this app is perfect! So simple and easy to use and the numbers have been pretty close to spot on as long as I am truthful about my gauge. Best $5 I have spent on an app in a long time!

I'm sure I'll be using this a lot with customers.. An improvement would be to add blankets/throws.
