Row counters for crocheting and knitting

Have you ever lost track of which round, row, or repeat you’re on while crocheting or knitting? A Row Counter makes it easy to keep track of your pattern. This handy tool helps you avoid mistakes, especially in projects with lots of repeats, increases, decreases, cables, color changes, or multiple pattern sections.

In this collection, you’ll find a variety of Row Counters for crocheting and knitting, ranging from simple Row Counters to handy accessory sets that include a Row Counter. For example, you can choose a classic Row Counter that slides onto your Knitting Needle, a digital Row Counter with a push button, a Row Counter ring to wear on your finger, or a complete set with additional crochet and knitting tools. This way, you can choose the counting method that works best for you for each project.

A Row Counter isn’t just useful for Knitting Patterns—it’s also helpful for crochet projects. Think of Amigurumi, Blankets, mandalas, clothing, or patterns where you have to repeat many rows. By clicking or turning the counter after each row, you’ll always know where you left off.

Which Row Counter is right for your project?

For small projects or simple patterns, a compact analog Row Counter is often sufficient. Are you working on larger projects, or do you want to be able to count quickly while crocheting or knitting?
