Session Stitch Counter
Separate counts by working session.
How Session Stitch Counter Works?
The Session Stitch Counter works by keeping Session Stitches for today's sitting apart from Lifetime Stitches for the whole project. Reset clears the session count and leaves the lifetime count in place.
Count the session
Tap the count pad or press Space for each stitch this session.
Add to lifetime
At the end of the session, press → to add the session's total, in blocks, to Lifetime Stitches.
Reset the session
Press Reset Count to clear Session Stitches for next time.
Review
Compare session totals over the week.
Session Stitch Counter Formula
The Session Stitch Counter formula is lifetime total = previous lifetime + session stitches. The average session equals lifetime stitches ÷ sessions.
- Lifetime total
L' = L + ss is Session Stitches.
- Average session
Avg = L ÷ nn is the number of sessions.
- Sessions left
Left = (target − L) ÷ AvgLeft estimates the sittings to finish.
Worked example: A sweater of 60,000 stitches with 22,500 done over 15 sessions averages 1,500 stitches a session, leaving 25 sessions.
