Bracelet Diary: Pattern Maker

Every bracelet, knot by knot.

Bracelet Diary is a calm, private home for your friendship bracelets. Design a pattern, follow it row by row while you knit, and keep a diary of every bracelet you finish, with its photos and the story behind it.

DESIGN PATTERNS • Normal patterns, knot by knot: forward, backward and the two-way knots, with the color of every string worked out for you. • Alpha patterns, cell by cell, like pixel art. • Undo and redo, and rows to insert, copy or delete. • Pro tools: fill, mirror painting, replace a color everywhere, flip, turn, shift, make symmetric and repeat rows.

SCAN A PATTERN FROM A PICTURE Have a screenshot or a photo of a pattern? Bracelet Diary reads its knots or cells and turns it into a pattern you can edit and knit. Anything it is unsure of is marked for you to check.

KNIT WITHOUT LOSING YOUR PLACE • Follow a pattern row by row, or mark knots one at a time. • Your place is saved: the row you are on, or every knot you have marked. Put your strings down and pick up where you left off. • See where every string is before each row. • The screen stays awake while you knit. • With Pro, see your pace and how long the rest will take.

KEEP A DIARY • Every finished bracelet with its date, photos and a note: who it was for, what you would change next time. • Search your diary by name, note or year. • With Pro, statistics and monthly goals: what you made each month and year, your streaks and your favorite colors.

YOUR THREAD BOX (PRO) Keep track of the floss you own: brand, number, color and how many skeins are left. Thread catalogs for the most widely used floss brands are built in, and you can add brands of your own. Link a pattern's colors to your threads and see which patterns use each one.

ORGANIZE AND SHARE • Sort your patterns into lists of your own. • Filter by type, number of strings or number of colors. • Share a single pattern with a friend as a file. • Print a pattern or save it as a PDF (Pro). • Export your whole diary to one file and bring it to a new phone.

ON IPHONE AND IPAD Big patterns get room to breathe on iPad. Light and dark themes follow your device.

PRIVATE BY DESIGN No account, no sign-in, no ads. Your patterns, bracelets, notes and photos stay on your device. Only anonymous crash reports and usage counts leave it, and neither says who you are.

FREE AND PRO Bracelet Diary is free to use, with room for 5 patterns, 2 bracelets in progress, 2 lists, 3 pattern scans and 1 photo per bracelet. Knitting, the diary, backups and sharing are always free.
