Why this gift works

The Kacha-Kacha is Clover's hand-held knitting counter: press the top once at the end of each row or round and it clicks forward, counting from 0 to 99 before it starts again. Turning the two side gears in the direction of the arrows sets it back to zero, and it is made of ABS plastic.

Losing count is one of the small frustrations of knitting - a phone call, a cup of tea, and suddenly nobody knows whether that was row 23 or 24. A counter that lives next to the project fixes it for the price of a coffee, and the audible click is oddly satisfying.

Who is this gift for?

Great for

  • A knitter who counts rows on sleeves and heels
  • Someone who knits while watching TV and loses their place

Think twice if

  • They already track rows in an app they like

The catch

It only goes to 99, it has no lock, so it can get bumped forward in a project bag, and the click is audible - some find it a little noisy.

Skip for a knitter who tracks rows in an app or on paper and likes it that way.

Worth knowing before you buy

  • The count rolls over after 99.
  • There is no lock, so it can move if it gets knocked in a bag.

Why we like it

  • One press per row, nothing to remember
  • Resets in seconds
  • Cheap and hard to get wrong

What to look for in a row counter

  • Range. Up to 99 covers most sections; long projects may need a note of the hundreds.
  • Lock. A counter with a lock will not move in a project bag; the Kacha-Kacha has none.
  • Needle or hand-held. Some counters slide onto the needle; hand-held ones sit beside the work.

Questions people ask

From 0 to 99, then it rolls back around.
