Knitamus 3.0 is now available on the App Store

Maybe you’re the kind of knitter that always has things in order. You’d love nothing better than to set up each row of a pattern before you even cast on. Or maybe you’re the one that dives in with abandon... but would love a lifeline to easily get started again, no matter how long that shawl or hat or intricate baby sweater has been lost in the bottom of your bag.

Either way, Knitamus is designed for you.

Each Knitamus project can have as many pieces as you need (for sleeves, front, and back, for instance). And each piece has a single counter so you always know which row you’re on. Easily display as many PDF pages or chart photos you need in the special chart window with an adjustable highlight bar that remembers each row. You can quickly page through to set the highlight for every row before you even start, including repeating highlights, or you can just get started and each row will be remembered as you go in case you knit it again. Easily add notes, repeating or not, to any row at any time.

iCloud sync allows you to work on your iPhone when you’re out and about, or enjoy the larger space of your iPad when it’s available.

The Ravelry connection keeps your photos and project status up-to-date automatically.

I hope you enjoy Knitamus! Please share the love by leaving a review on the App Store and contact me by email with any questions or concerns. I read every message. Happy knitting!

All New Sync. Beautiful iPad Layouts. Full Landscape Support.

Meet Knitamus 3.0.

This major release offers a new look, with more contrast and larger fonts for easier reading, as well as a more responsive layout that takes full advantage of the iPad’s larger screen.  I hope you love it!

Working with patterns and charts is now much easier.  It’s easier to choose the pages you want to use, easier to set highlights for many rows at once, easier to create, visualize and edit repeats.   Best of all, you will never again get a pop up asking if you might be repeating something!

Text notes are better, too, and now have their own area of the screen instead of being inside the counter button.  Repeating notes have a visual indicator of where you are in the repeat cycle.  The overview of all notes is easier to understand and use.

Sync has also been completely rewritten and many bugs fixed.  The new system also means it will be easier to diagnose and fix additional problems that may crop up, so definitely let me know if you run into any trouble.

You now have more control over your Ravelry connection.  You can choose to sync all your projects or just your works in progress and you can change whether the Knitamus badge shows on your profile at any time.

Keeping the screen on while you’re knitting is now an optional feature (available in the Settings tab).

Finally, the watch app has been removed until it can be rewritten to fit the new sync system. 

Thank you for your patience!

I just started my new project with this program on my phone. The sweater has different side patterns and a major cable section in the middle, plus there are different row repeats, as well as increases, to account for. This is SO EASY in this app, and so HELPFUL. Has already saved me a few times!
