How the Crochet Project Dashboard Works

The Crochet Project Dashboard works in 4 steps.

  1. 1

    List your projects

    Write each project in the notes box with its pattern, hook size and yarn.

  2. 2

    Add counts and status

    Add the current row or round and a status label for each project.

  3. 3

    Track the active project

    Set Target Goal to the active project's rows and count with + Count or Space.

  4. 4

    Update when switching

    Copy the count into the project's line before moving to another project. Everything saves in your browser.

Crochet Project Dashboard Formula

The Crochet Project Dashboard formula ranks projects by completion and deadline pressure.

Project completion (%) = Rows done ÷ Total rows × 100

Rows per day needed = (Total rows − Rows done) ÷ Days to deadline

Rows done
Current count for the project
Total rows
Pattern total
Days to deadline
Days left before a gift date or event

Worked example: A gift blanket of 120 rows has 72 done and 16 days left. Completion = 72 ÷ 120 × 100 = 60%, and rows per day needed = 48 ÷ 16 = 3.

Crochet Project Dashboard Conversion Table

The Crochet Project Dashboard conversion table defines 5 project status labels and when to use each.

What is a Crochet Project Dashboard?

A crochet project dashboard is a single page that lists every active project with its count, pattern, hook, yarn and notes. The Crochet Stitch Counter Crochet Project Dashboard gives a works-in-progress (WIP) overview so no project gets forgotten in a bag.

Most crocheters run 3 to 5 projects at once: a blanket at home, a small piece for travel and a gift with a deadline. Each project has its own counts and settings. A dashboard keeps those details in one list.

Status labels such as Active, Paused and Finishing show where your time goes.

What are the Uses of a Crochet Project Dashboard?

There are 4 main uses of a Crochet Project Dashboard.

  • Managing several WIPs

    Every project's count stays in one list.

  • Meeting gift deadlines

    Rows per day show which project needs attention.

  • Tracking tools and yarn

    Hook sizes and dye lots stay with each project.

  • Clearing old projects

    Paused items stay visible instead of forgotten.
