Tapestry crochet yarn calculator

Estimate each color from the chart's stitch count and color share. Measure your own swatch so the result reflects your yarn, hook, stitch, tension, and carrying method.

  • Uses your measured metres per stitch—not a generic yarn table
  • Splits the exact stitch total across three color shares
  • Shows the base amount and safety buffer separately

Measure once

Find metres per stitch from a real swatch

  1. Work a representative tapestry swatch with the planned yarn and hook.
  2. Record the yarn length used, excluding the starting amount you did not crochet.
  3. Count the stitches in the swatch and divide metres used by that stitch count.

This is a planning estimate, not a dye-lot guarantee. Technique, floats, tails, joins, tension, and mistakes change real consumption; keep the buffer and round purchasing decisions up to complete skeins.
