About this app

Purl is a calm, private companion for knitters and crocheters. Everything lives
on your device, with no account, no sign-up, and no ads.

PROJECTS
• Track what you're making, from planned to finished.
• A visual timeline of your projects over time.
• Add progress photos with notes, and record the gauge you actually got.

YARN STASH
• Log your yarn with color, dye lot, weight, fiber, and gauge.
• See your totals: meters, grams, and even the value of your stash.
• Scan a barcode to fill in the details automatically.
• Sort and filter to find the right yarn, and match yarn to a pattern.

PATTERNS
• Keep your own written patterns and imported PDFs in one library.
• Open PDF patterns, even very big ones, and pinch to zoom, fully offline.
• Draw, highlight, add sticky notes, drop bookmarks, and pin a chart key.
• Row counters and a chart stitch tracker built for following along.

HANDY TOOLS
• Quick standalone counters for anything you need to count.
• A craft calculator: gauge, resizing, even shaping, skeins needed.
• A knit and crochet terminology glossary in Norwegian and English.

MADE TO FEEL RIGHT
• Norwegian and English throughout.
• Light and dark mode.
• A two-pane layout on iPad and larger screens.
• Backup and restore everything to a single file.

Purl is free, with no locked features. If it helps you, there is an optional
tip on the Support Purl page, but nothing is ever put behind a paywall.

Your data stays yours: it lives on your device unless you choose to export it.

What’s new

Purl is now on Google Play for everyone. Keep your patterns, projects, and yarn stash in one place, count rows as you knit, and read your PDF patterns with markers and highlights. New since the test: pattern folders, paper patterns from phone photos, hold to select multiple items, and Back from a pattern now returns you to where you came from. Everything stays on your phone.
