The Krowshea Studio · in beta

See it before you make it

Build a crochet pattern stitch by stitch and watch it take shape. The Studio draws the chart, shows it in your colors and in 3D Yarn, writes the pattern, and checks every count before you pick up a hook.

The Krowshea Studio with the Starburst Mandala: seven rounds listed on the left, the mandala drawn in five colors on the right

Starburst Mandala · 7 rounds · 5 colorsA real Studio screen

Build

Build with stitch groups

Pick a stitch, a group like a shell or a V-stitch, and where it goes. Round by round, the drawing grows beside you. No code needed.

  • Rounds and rows, circles and squares
  • Your own stitches, saved and reused
  • Start from a Library piece and change it
The Studio builder: seven rounds, the yarns, and the stitch and group palette

See it

One pattern, four ways to see it

Every view comes from the same pattern, so they always agree. Change a round and all four change with it.

The Studio flagging round 2: it makes 24 dc but the pattern expects 26 dc

Check

It checks every count

Krowshea counts the stitches each round uses and makes. A wrong count lights up on the chart and in the round, with the reason in plain words.

ErrorRound 2 makes 24 dc, but the pattern expects 26 dc. Check the stitch count or the expected total.

WarningRound 3 will likely cup: its outer edge is 64% of a flat circle at that size. Add increases.

Make it

Crochet along, one round at a time

Make it shows the round you are on, lights it up on the drawing, and counts with you. Tap as you go, leave yourself a note, and pick up where you stopped, on your phone too.

The Krowshea Library: mandalas, granny squares and other motifs

Library

A Library of checked patterns

Mandalas, granny squares, blankets, dishcloths, bags and more, each one checked and written out. Make one as it is, or open it and make it yours.

And more

Made for the way you crochet

Left-handed, built in

Switch Hand to Left and the chart, Color and 3D mirror the way your work comes out. The counts stay the same.

Yarn worked out

Meters, yards and grams for every color, from the hook, the yarn weight or your own gauge.

Made to size

Say how big it should be and Krowshea works out the rounds and where the increases go.

Step through

Walk the chart or Color view one stitch at a time to see exactly where each stitch goes.

Print it

A clean printout with the chart, key and every round.

Krowtracks™

Coming with the beta: register a pattern you designed, with a photo of the piece you made, so copies can be traced back to you.

Underneath

A crochet language

Everything you build is saved as Krowshea, a small language whose words are crochet. You never have to see it. If you like code, open the Code tab and write patterns by hand, with repeats, variables and tests.
