"StashBot is that perfect combination of grace, functionality, and ease-of-use. Behind the pretty face, though, an intelligent engine delivers numbers you can trust. Unless you're a math genius with all the charts in your mind, this is the best $5 you'll ever spend on a knitting app."

- Clara Parkes, Knitter's Review

"StashBot is as pretty as it is clever."

- Meghan Fernandes, Pom Pom Quarterly

"Yardage requirements never looked so good."

- Amy Herzog, CustomFit

Love it!

I was looking for an app that could replace the “how much do I need” cards that were never with me - this app is perfect! So simple and easy to use and the numbers have been pretty close to spot on as long as I am truthful about my gauge. Best $5 I have spent on an app in a long time!


Great App

This app is going to be so great when I want to purchase yarn and not sure on what project I will want to knit. It will definitely help me figure out the yardage I will need for projects.


It changed my life

I never had an emotional reaction to a calculator before, but recently my 34 grandchildren and I have been bickering over the amount of baby camel yarn that I store. This morning when we came in for breakfast the little bitey one showed me this app and asked me to how much yarn would it take to make a sweater for the cat. It brought a tear to my eye! Works great on iPhone 6 PLUS, and it supports metric, yay!


Love!!!

I'm so excited about this. I always over shop :)


Love.

Clean, simple-to-use interface. I particularly love that it allows you to choose various sweater shapes, and that gauge inputs vary by .25" increments.


So great!

I love this app! It's so useful for when I come across some yarn & want a rough idea of how much to purchase for different project types (I'll round up to the next full ball & add some extra for yarn-heavy stitches like cabling). This app has greatly simplified my yarn planning. It's much easier & quicker to use in an LYS than trying to navigate Ravelry's extensive yarn/pattern database before making a purchase. And, the intuitive, uncluttered, and pretty interface make it a pleasure to use.


Great Addition to My Knitting Apps

Thank you so much for the Stashbot app. I work at a yarn store and I can estimate yardage but this app gives me the confidence to sell the correct amount for the intended project. With Stashbot I can show the customer what is needed and how it can vary from style, size, and gauge. The absolute best part is the ability to scroll and watch the visuals change instantly. I will definitely encourage all iOS users who knit to get this app and use it every time you shop for yarn for their project in a shop or in their stash. Home run, Hannah and hubby!!!


What a relief!

This app is a delight. It's straight forward, efficient and elegant. I never leave home without it. Thanks for taking the guess work out of my spontaneous yarn purchases.


Essential app for knitters

Clean, simple app that does the math so I don't have to. I'll be using this one often.


Works like a charm

Great app. I tested it out on a pattern I have and the numbers were spot on. This will be a very useful tool.
