AI companion — optional
Purl can read and interpret the details in your written patterns, see and explain charts and pixel charts, and share the basics of knitting & crochet. She becomes available as soon as you start tracking a pattern or chart, or start writing one, right in a Purl tab alongside your tracker or editor. Purl is completely optional — you can enable or disable her at any time from your home page.

Pattern resize calculator
Make a piece wider or narrower at the pattern's own gauge, keeping the designer's ease.

Alexis dreamed up GatheredFolk after years of juggling projects across notebooks, PDFs, screenshots, and half-finished ideas. She wanted one thoughtful place where knitters and crocheters could create, organize, and enjoy the process without hopping between countless apps. Every feature begins with a question she once asked herself while making.
Jake is the engineer behind the experience. He transformed that vision into GatheredFolk, thoughtfully building everything from the interactive stitch grid to Purl, our AI crafting companion. Every detail is designed to quietly support your creativity, so you can spend less time managing your tools and more time making.
