I am doing a more tedious alpha pattern that requires many color changes of similar colors. It gets hard for my eyes to distinguish each color, and then I have to repeatedly check how many knots I need to be doing, etc. It can be hard to keep searching for colors. My idea to solve this comes from a crochet website called Stitch Fiddle. Stitch Fiddle is a fiber art website similar to Bracelet Book. A site where users make patterns, often pixel art patterns, and can create their patterns to crochet, knit, cross-stitch, etc.
This site has a feature in its pixel art pattern generator that allows you to click on a row and have the row be highlighted, easily drawing your eyes to which row you're working on. The site also has a part at the bottom that shows you the number of knots you need to do for each color, in order. For example, if the pattern was red, red, green, red, green, green. The bottom of the page would display a red box with the number 2 in it, then a green box with 1, a red box with 1, and a green box with a 2 in it.
(When working from right to left, the boxes at the bottom display, in order from left to right, what knots you need to do)

I love bracelet book, and this would help me with doing trickier alpha patterns!
Thank you for considering!
