Row Counter
Two counters — Rows and Repeats. Tap a tab to switch. Both save automatically, so picking a project back up next week keeps your place.
Other counters
Losing your place in a pattern is the specific frustration a row counter exists to prevent. Knitting and crochet are worked over sessions rather than in one sitting, and no amount of counting stitches after the fact reliably tells you which row of a repeat you were on.
Rows and pattern repeats
Patterns usually have two counts running at once: the row you're on within a repeat, and how many times you've worked the repeat. This page starts with both. Count Rows as you work, reset it at the end of each repeat, and add one to Repeats.
For a pattern with a third level — a repeat within a repeat, or a count of completed sections — add another counter and name it. There's no limit on how many run at once.
Picking a project back up
The count is saved on this device automatically, with no button to press and no account. A project put down for a month is still on the right row when you come back, which is the entire point of a counter over a scrap of paper that goes missing in the project bag.
It's worth naming counters per project if you have several on the go — the names are saved along with the totals.
Working to a row count
When a pattern section is a fixed number of rows, turn the limit on and set it. The remaining figure then tells you how many rows are left in the section rather than how many you've done, which is the number you're actually working towards.
Questions people ask
Can I track rows and repeats separately?
Yes — this page opens with both, and you can add more counters for nested repeats.
Will it remember my place between sessions?
Yes. Everything is saved in your browser on that device, with no account and nothing to press.
Can I run counters for several projects?
Yes. Add a counter per project and name each one — the names save with the counts.
