Crochet Completion Time Estimator Formula
The Crochet Completion Time Estimator formula multiplies rows by time per row, then divides by daily hours.
Hours left = (Rows remaining × Minutes per row) ÷ 60
Days left = Hours left ÷ Hours per day
- Rows remaining
- Rows still to work
- Minutes per row
- Average time for 1 row
- Hours per day
- Daily crochet time
Worked example: 80 rows at 12 minutes per row = 960 minutes = 16 hours. At 1.5 hours per day, days left = 16 ÷ 1.5 = 10.7, so 11 days.

What is a Crochet Completion Time Estimator?
A crochet completion time estimator is a calculator that predicts how many hours and days remain until a project is finished, based on rows left and your measured pace. The Crochet Stitch Counter Crochet Completion Time Estimator answers "will this blanket be done by the birthday?"
Remaining time depends on 3 numbers: rows left, minutes per row and the hours you crochet each day. Timing a few rows gives minutes per row. Multiplying gives the hours left, and dividing by daily hours gives the days left.
The estimate updates whenever the rows left or your daily time changes.
