Hi knitting friends! I was curious to hear how you all keep track of what row you’re on? Do you use a stitch counter, a scrap of paper with tallies, something else? Just wanted to hear other people’s processes!
I tried out the paper technique and liked it but found it tough when I needed to frog a section, or sometimes I was knitting on the go and didn’t want to lose it… Lately I’ve been using an iPhone app called Tally where you tap the screen to increment, and pull down to decrement – one thing that’s nice about it is it shows a timestamp of the last time you changed it, so sometimes that can help with the age-old “wait… I can’t remember if I already counted this row or not??”
I’d also love to hear if anyone has tips on the best way to count rows while looking at a pattern with cables? I’m struggling sometimes to double-check if I’m not sure if I miscounted my rows, but I get confused on how to count with the twist involved…
