*Basketweave
*Bobble
*Cable/Twist
*Chevron/Diamonds
*Drop
*Eyelet/Lace

New this Month: A list of all the latest stitches added.

Favorites: This list of stitch types is created by you! At each stitch’s details page, there is an option to add that stitch to your favorites list. Add as many stitch types as you want, and delete any stitch types at any time by tapping on the star again in the stitch's details page you want to remove. If a stitch has a green star, it means it is included in your favorites list.

Search: Currently you can search by keywords, or a combination of keywords and categories. The keywords you type will search not only through the stitch type names, but also their description and instructions. Example searches include:

Example 1: Search in Keywords: ‘Mul of 4 sts’ and the results will include all stitch types that have a multiple of 4 stitches in their instructions.

Example 2: Search in keywords and categories: Leave both areas blank! The results will show all stitch types currently included in the app.

Abbreviations: Search bar included at the top for ease of use. When you find the abbreviation you need, click on it in the list and another page will open with its explanation.
