Store description excerpt
Stop losing hand-knit projects to the wrong blocking call. Knithour tells you whether today's humidity and temperature favor blocking your specific fiber blend, estimates drying hours, and flags growth or felting risk before you pin. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose your fiber (wool, superwash, silk, mohair, alpaca, cotton, linen, cashmere, acrylic, nylon) or build a custom blend. 2. Knithour reads your local humidity and temperature and applies fiber-specific drying and stretch data. 3. You get a GO / CAUTION / WAIT verdict, drying time estimate in hours, recommended method (wet, steam, or spray), and a risk badge when your target dimensions push fiber limits. It takes 20 seconds to set up. No account required. TODAY'S CONDITIONS See current humidity and temperature for your location with color-coded readouts, plus today's blocking verdict for a wool preset. WOOL BLOCKING GUIDE Wet block method, drying time estimate, and stage-aware advice for a single active wool project — the most common home knitting case covered for free. ACTIVE PROJECT TRACKER Start one active blocking session and track progress from wet phase through likely-dry with stage-specific tips. Upgrade to Pro for deeper insights: - All 10 fiber presets (superwash, silk, mohair, alpaca, cashmere, cotton, linen, acrylic, nylon, plus blends) - Custom fiber blend with up to 4 fibers and percentage sliders - Growth estimate and target achievability check - Fiber-specific risk warnings (superwash growth, mohair felting, silk wet-stretch, cotton no-memory) - 7-day humidity forecast with daily ranking for blocking - Unlimited active projects with flip reminder notifications - Blocking history log PRIVACY FIRST All project data, settings, and history are stored locally on your device. No account. No sign-in. No tracking. Location is used only to fetch humidity and temperature from a public weather service (Open-Meteo) and is never stored on any server we operate. This app provides blocking guidance based on published textile research and knitter community data. It is not a substitute for testing a swatch in your specific yarn and environment. Results vary by yarn brand, blend, and home conditions. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
