Knitting Project Journal

Every knitting project with its needles, rows and dates, your yarn with dye lots, yearly totals and a printable project page.

Knitting project journal by Envelo KnitTally: every project with its needle, dates and rows, the yarn of each project with its dye lot, your year in numbers – and a true-size project page to print.

Which yarn was that hat, which dye lot, and how long did the socks take? KnitTally keeps it in one place on your own device, adds up the yarn of each project and flags it when one colour comes from two dye lots.

What it does

What you can do

  • Add every project: name, status (planned, on the needles, finished, frogged), start and finish dates, needle or hook, pattern, rows planned and done
  • Add the yarn of each project: yarn, colour, dye lot, skeins and the grams and length of a skein – in metres or yards
  • See each project’s progress by rows, its yarn in grams and length, and the days from start to finish
  • Get a warning when one project has the same colour from two dye lots
  • See your year: projects finished, the yarn they took and the days to finish on average
  • A true-size project page, 140 × 200 mm, with the yarn and dye lots, a box to tape a yarn snip and a ruler: download as SVG or print at 100 % on A4 or US Letter
  • Projects and yarn as CSV tables, backup and restore

Good to know

  • This is a digital download. Nothing is shipped.
  • No subscription and no account. The app runs on your device and uploads nothing.
  • KnitTally keeps the projects and yarn you enter. Write the dye lot from the label – skeins of one colour from different lots may not match.
  • No patterns are included, and there is no live row counter – you write the rows done.
  • Your numbers do not sync between devices; move them with the backup file.
  • For your own use. Please don't resell or share the files.
  • The app, its logo, the texts and the translations were made as code with the help of an AI coding assistant. No AI image generators were used.
