About crochet

The first mobile app crafted specially for crocheters

The light and rounded design, with bright colors that speak to the audience in a joyful tone, makes the use of the app pleasant and enjoyable.

The story behind

How we started this project

Currently, pattern creators publish their instructions in PDF, with no unified format and not made for mobile devices. This is why we decided to create a new format that solves it for a user and enables search, progress tracking, step by step interaction, and makes a mobile app a one-stop for all the tools. We did initial research with many crocheters to find out — what you need.

Row counter

Many crocheters require a «row counter» — a basic counter with the possibility to add — or + and a timer.

PDF instructions

Patterns available online are most commonly sold by PDF files. It is re-selled & pirated, unsecurely stored, and lost every year. We had to fix that for the user and merchant.

All-in-one tool

Our goal was to create all the necessary items for the crocheters in one app, so that they would not have to switch through the apps or google something.

Impact

Our solution

As a result, as artisans, we have crafted an app that collects a huge number of functions that crocheters need in their daily job. Mobile optimised patterns, multiple row counters, unit converter, PDF upload & cloud sync, yarn, hook & needle warehouse — all that in a single mobile app. CrochetApp is the best friend of any crocheting artisan!
