YarnScope is a stash tracker built for serious crafters. Scan ball bands, log yardage, match yarns to patterns — and stop buying duplicate skeins of fingering-weight rust.
You opened the basket on the third shelf and there they were — three perfectly good skeins, in the exact rust you'd just spent forty euros on at Loop.
You bought that fingering-weight rust again because you forgot you already had three skeins of it in the basket on the third shelf. We've all done it. YarnScope is the answer.
Five core features. Each one rendered as a swatch-book page, the way a good catalogue ought to be.
Every skein gets a card — brand, colorway, dye lot, yardage, and where you stored it. Filter by weight (fingering, DK, worsted, bulky). Group by project. Find the three skeins of madder rust before you buy a fourth.
What it replaces: a notebook, a spreadsheet, a memory you don't fully trust.
Point the camera at any ball band. We extract brand, fiber blend, weight, yardage, and dye lot — no typing.
Tell us the pattern's weight, yardage, and gauge. We surface every skein you own that could work — and how many you'd need.
Start a project. Reserve the skeins. Track rows, the gauge, and the moment you decided to frog it. No more orphan WIPs.
Built multilingually from day one. Every weight, fiber, and abbreviation works in English, German, Polish, Norwegian, French, Dutch, Swedish, Danish, and Finnish — no missing translations, no broken units.
Works on Novita, PetiteKnit, Filcolana, Isager, Knitting for Olive, Järbo, Marks & Kattens, Scheepjes, Durable, Yarn and Colors, Phildar, Bergère de France, DMC, Drops, Garnstudio, Sandnes Garn, Du Store Alpakka, Malabrigo, Madelinetosh, Quince, and most band layouts in EN, DE, PL, NB, FR, NL, SV, DA, FI. If the OCR misses a field, you can correct it in one tap — and the next time we'll know.
No more typing brand names. No more guessing yardage from "feels about a skein."
"YarnScope was made by knitters in Klaipėda. The stash on the test devices includes Malabrigo, Tosh, Drops, Garnstudio, and three forgotten skeins of acrylic from someone's grandmother."— The YarnScope team · A workshop above a bakery, near the Old Town
No trial. No credit card. The free plan stays free — because most stashes are bigger than fifty, and a tool that fits the stash is worth a few euro a month.
Free for 50 yarns. $3.99/month for unlimited and the ball-band scanner — or stay free, the stash is real.
Not "what is yarn." We assume you know your fingering from your DK. If something here is missing, write to us — start@djump.io.
We'll let you know when the iOS and Android apps go live. No spam — we knit, we don't market.
Every message is read by a real person, usually within a day. Bug reports, feature requests, press inquiries, language corrections — we want them all.
