language agnostic notation

These work regardless of the language the pattern is written in.

Grouping & Sequences

• (), [] for grouping
• • nested groups (e.g., [ (sc 1, inc) * 2 ] * 3).
• Commas are used to separate different steps in a sequence (e.g., sc 1, inc, sc 2).
• Stitches inside a stitch are placed inside {} (e.g., {5sc} means "crochet 5sc in the same stitch")

Multipliers & Math

• Math symbols: *, x, and X (followed by a number) are used to repeat a sequence or stitch (e.g., sc * 6, [inc, sc] x 4).
• • (sc, inc)6 and 6(sc,inc) also work but try to avoid this.
• 4 sc, sc 4, sc4 all mean 4 single crochets

Row/Round Definitions & Totals

• Rows are followed by : or . (e.g., R 1., R2: for more see language specific)
• ranges are expanded into individual rows (e.g., Row 1-5: sc around becomes 5 separate rows).
• total stitch counts at the end of a line (e.g., (12), [24 sts]).

Formatting & Customization

• Color Tags: to apply colors to specific stitches or sections (e.g., <r>sc 5</r> makes those 5 stitches red). Tags supported include <bla>, <w>, <y>, <lo>, <o>, <lr>, <r>, <lpin>, <pin>, <lpu>, <pu>, <lblu>, <blu>, <lgr>, <gr>, <lbro>, <bro>, <lgre>, <gre>. You can also do this via the interface.

• Inline Notes/Comments: Adding a hashtag # allows you to write notes that won't be parsed as stitches. (e.g., sc 5 # stuff stuffing here). You can also do this via the interface

• Pattern sections

Section <- this is a section!
R1: 5sc

• notes/ comments can now be added to stichss and sections: Inner notes syntax (also from tracker view):

"tat", 'tat',“tat” or ”tat”, inc"tit", inc "tit" Also in groups: (sc "tat", inc"tit") Also for sections:

head "note"

Q&A

More themes?

I'm considering adding a light mode.

More features?

Probably not. I don't want to make this app too bulky, it is already way more complex than I first envisioned. It should be enough for most use cases.

More languages?

Maybe. I don't know if many (or any) users will use this app so let's keep it simple. I'm open to suggestions and corrections.

Android, iOS?

No. I wanted to make something accessible from any device and easy to maintain so a web app seemed like the obvious choice.

"I'm from Ribblr ltd. ’or any for profit business’, I wish..."

No. You can't use the code (or parts of it). Just pay an actual dev to do the heavy lifting.

Found a bug? Wanna contribute? Wanna donate?

Sure, you can open a issue, make a pull req. You can also buy me a coffee if you wish to do so.
