Explore the guides

Getting Started

Create a project, understand the five main tabs, save progress and return to your craft.

Rows, Stitches & Timers

Correct counts, finish a row, pause the timer and get optional knitting cues.

Import & Read Patterns

Open original PDFs, understand source passages, size selection and safe local imports.

Focus Mode & Guidance

Use the quieter project layout and navigate instructions without changing counts.

Loopi & Appearance

Meet Loopi, control her chatter, change themes and personalize your workspace.

Marketplace & Roadmap

See what is in beta, what’s coming later and how designer purchases will eventually work.

Troubleshooting & FAQ

No steps? Confusing charts? Lost your place? Answers for common beta questions.

For knitting and crochet designers

We also maintain a separate Loopi-Ready formatting guide for designers who want their instructions to be easier to read and eventually integrate with Loop Darling. It is a proposed format, not an active certification or upload portal.

What’s available today?

The Android beta has local project tracking, row/stitch counters, timers, personal pattern sources and Loopi. The original PDF reader and heuristic guidance are available in beta and should be checked against the original instructions. There are no live pattern purchases, cloud accounts, AI interpretation services or iOS release yet.

Documentation updated October 2026 from the current Android source repository. We update these help articles as features are tested and released.
