Yaimamess Knot is a home for your yarn.
If your stash lives in bins, bags, and a mental list you'd rather not test, this is a place to put all of it — and to find it again.
YOUR STASH
Keep every yarn you own with its brand, colour, fibre, weight, yardage, dye lot, and a photo. Ten skeins of the same yarn is one entry with a quantity of ten, so a big stash takes far less entering than you think.
Photograph a yarn label and the app reads the text for you. Tap each line into the box where it belongs — brand here, colour there — instead of typing it all out.
YOUR PROJECTS
A project starts as an idea, becomes a work in progress, and ends up finished. Reserve yarn from your stash for a project and the app keeps track of what's spoken for and what's still free.
When you finish or frog a project, it asks what to do with the leftovers. Full skeins go back where you say. Part skeins are counted as scraps and kept out of your main list, so your stash reads as what it is — and you can still see how much scrap yarn you have, in grams and yards, when a scrap project is what you fancy.
WHAT CAN I MAKE?
Say what you want to make — pick one of your patterns, or just give a weight and a yardage — and the app tells you where the yarn could come from: your stash, your scraps, your wish list, and what you would still be short. Can't decide? It will pick something at random that your yarn actually covers.
YOUR PATTERNS
Attach pattern PDFs and they stay in the app, available offline and included in your backups.
EVERYTHING ELSE
A wish list for yarn you want. Storage locations so you know which bin. Tools, with a note of what's checked out and which project has it. Statistics for your whole stash at a glance. A trash that holds deleted things for a week, in case you change your mind.
COMPLETELY OFFLINE
There is no account to make, no sign-in, and no internet connection in the app at all. Everything you enter stays on your device. Nothing is collected, nothing is uploaded, nothing is shared, and no one — including us — can see your stash.
Backups are yours to make and keep wherever you like.
