50I keep repeating the same searches

Pin a search or a thing once, and find it again in one tap

Before you start
1
Pin a search
Pinning a pattern search with its filters from the search screen

Put together a filter you like: fingering weight, top down, free, sorted by rating. Pin the search from the search screen and the whole thing is saved, including what you typed, the filters, and the sort. Pinning works on the app's search screens for patterns, pattern sources, designers, and people.

Filter combinations worth pinning: Search for Patterns.
2
Open your pinned content

After you pin something, tap View in the short message that appears. That opens Pinned Content, which has three tabs. Pinned Searches holds your saved filter setups. Pinned Items holds the single things you pinned. Ravelry Searches holds the searches saved in your Ravelry account. In Simple Mode with pin management turned on, Pinned Content also gets its own entry on the Discover tab.

3
Run a pinned search again

Tap any pinned search and it runs again with every filter back in place. Fresh results, and no tapping it all in again. Because it runs live each time, a pinned search doubles as a watchlist. Pin "new fingering shawls, free" and look in whenever you want the latest matches.

Tip: Pin the searches that come round each year. "Chunky hats" in October, "cotton tees" in May. Then the whole rotation is one tap away.
4
Pin a thing, not just a search

The Pinned Items tab fills up from the items themselves. There is a Pin action on patterns, yarns, projects, stash entries, bundles, designers, shops, people, pattern sources and forum topics. Anything you want to come back to without searching for it again. Pin it once and it is on that tab, on every device you sign in on.

Tip: Pins and favorites do different jobs. A favorite is a bookmark you keep. A pin is a shortcut you are using right now: the sock pattern you are halfway through, the shop you keep checking.
