Strikkebasen

The knitting base is the tool that makes knitting easier — from finding the right yarn to finishing the last stitch.
Developed in Norway, clear, and completely without advertising or registration.

YARN ALTERNATIVES
Find all yarns that knit with the same knitting tension as the pattern requires. Filter by composition — wool, alpaca,
mohair, cotton, silk and more — and find suitable substitutes when the pattern's original yarn is not available.

CALCULATORS
• Increase and decrease calculator: calculates evenly distributed decreases and increases over a number of stitches.
• Ball calculator: enter how many grams the pattern requires, and you will see the number of balls of the selected yarn.

COUNTING HELP AND MEASUREMENTS
• Round counter with large buttons to keep track of rows and rounds.
• Screen ruler that shows exactly 1 cm — one cm on the screen is one cm in reality, automatically adapted to your iPhone
or iPad.

KNITTING TERMS
Built-in glossary of the most common knitting terms and abbreviations, categorized and searchable.

YOUR OWN COLLECTION
Keep track of what you have:
• Register your own yarns with gauge, needle size, composition, weight and number of skeins.
• Register your own needles with size, number and type (wood, steel, bamboo, circular needle, crochet hook).
• Your own yarns automatically appear in all searches — or filter to just your own.

NOTES
Write your own notes for projects, pattern changes or ideas. Automatically saved to your device.
