What people are saying: "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 Buy yarn....smarter.

YARN SHOPS: This is a great tool for you shop as it encourages knitters to purchase sweater quantities of yarn!
STASHBOT ROCKS!
II usually knit my sweaters and socks without a pattern with the help of the book, “Knitting 101” for general size and measurent info. My sweaters are usually raglans or circular yoke so once you understand the formula with these types of sweaters (and that goes for socks, too) I find a pattern is not necessary unless the pattern I am knitting has a color work chart I want to use. I use this app as a jumping off point when I need to know how much yarn I will need. Very helpful indeed. Many thanks, STASHBOT, for developing this app! ❤️🧶❤️
Stash Bot, To Waste Not
This app has saved me HUNDREDS of dollars! Generally—especially if you’re a beginner—you either buy too much or not enough. If you like to design, this app takes the guesswork out of figuring how much yarn you need for your project. I make my swatch, look up the article along with the size, and bingo! Money saved! PLEASE get this app!
I use StashBot weekly!
This app is easy to use. When I don’t have a pattern in mind but I want to buy enough yarn for a future project, I always turn to this app for an estimate of how much yarn to buy. I can quickly see how far a potential purchase will go and decide if I want to make a large or small project. This is helpful when eyeballing some more expensive skeins.
Awesome app
Love the app. Would really love to switch between knit and crochet. Add cowls or different with scarves for cowls.
Crucial for yarn acquisition
This has been a valuable tool when lured by yarn in the LYS when i don’t have a pattern in mind.
Love the app but needs more options
I think this app is amazing and works very smoothly, but I so badly wish it had more categories/options! I find myself making a lot of knit items for summer, too, and would love to see shirts, tanks, etc as an option as well!
Love this tool
This app is a great tool! But I agree with another review asking for weight of yarn to be a parameter. Often, the weight of the yarn can change the yardage required for a project.
