About YarnWiz
YarnWiz is the knitting companion your stash has been waiting for - made by a knitter! Snap a photo of any yarn label and YarnWiz instantly logs the brand, weight, yardage, and colorway. No manual entry, no guesswork. Build your complete stash library and finally know what you actually have (yes, even that mystery skein from the festival three years ago). Then let the magic happen. YarnWiz matches your stash to real patterns based on what you own right now. Browse your matches, filter by category, and go straight from "I have yarn" to "I know what to cast on next!" Features: Instant label scanning: snap, scan, done Full stash management with yardage tracking Pattern matching based on your actual stash Full integration with Ravelry Save patterns from Ravelry to your library or wishlist Project tracking from cast-on to bind-off Whether you're a one-project-at-a-time knitter or someone whose stash has its own zip code, YarnWiz helps you spend less time wondering and more time knitting. Your yarn is waiting. What will you make? Terms of Use: https://yarnwiz.com/terms

What’s new
Version 1.2.7 · Updated September 25, 2026
New Features Ravelry stash sync: saving a yarn or logging how much is left in a project now updates Ravelry automatically. Changing your skein count, the full yardage across all skeins, and your yarn notes sync too. A new "Update my stash on Ravelry" button catches everything up at once. Projects on Ravelry: projects you send now bring their yarn, needle sizes, and whether they're knit or crochet, and photos from your project updates upload too. Pattern suggestions: matching Ravelry patterns appear as you type a pattern name while sharing to Community. Ravelry reminders: a couple of gentle reminders if you haven't connected Ravelry a few days after joining, which you can turn off in Settings. Improvements Connecting Ravelry is easier: no password retyping if you're already signed in to Ravelry in Safari, no time limit to create an account, and clearer messages when something goes wrong. Community photos load faster and use less data. Events show a loading screen instead of an empty list. Bug Fixes Fixed closing the Ravelry sign-in page leaving the app stuck on "Connecting." Fixed Share to Community on a project update not opening the post composer. Fixed gift yarn showing as "will trade or sell" on Ravelry.
