From a side project to a crafting companion
Stash2Go started as a simple idea: make Ravelry easier to use on the go. What began as a solo side project in 2013 has grown into a full-featured companion app used by knitters and crocheters around the world.
The original Stash2Go launched on the App Store — bringing Ravelry to iPhone for the first time. Built as a native iOS app, it gave crafters a way to browse patterns, manage their stash, and track projects without wrestling with a desktop website on a small screen.
Android crafters joined in — Stash2Go arrived on Google Play. The Android version brought the same core experience to a wider audience, and the community started to grow.
Both apps received regular updates: offline mode, better search, photo management, forums, and messaging. Stash2Go became a daily companion for thousands of crafters.
Updates slowed to a trickle — an occasional burst here and there, but nothing like the early years. Maintaining two separate native codebases as a solo developer proved unsustainable. The app still worked, but it wasn't getting the attention it deserved. Behind the scenes, work began on a complete rewrite.
A complete rewrite for iOS, Android, and the web — built from the ground up with a modern design, 31 color themes, and powerful new features like Stash Matchmaker, Personal Feed, AI-powered tools, and project insights. Also available on Apple TV and Google TV.
Stash2Go II continues to evolve with new features, improvements, and ideas from the community. Built by a crafter, for crafters — and still a labor of love.
