knitCompanion – Customizing Written Patterns

In this video, I demonstrate how to customize written instructions in the knitCompanion app, to make it super easy to keep track of where you are.

To try knitCompanion, visit the Apple App Store or Google Play Store, and search for knitCompanion (one word) to download the free version of the app.

You can see all of the videos in my knitCompanion series (more coming!) here.

The pattern I use for example is Lost in a Dream Hooded Cape, you can get more info on the pattern and tutorial here.

The scarf on the mannequin is Trigo (not my design), more info here on Ravelry.

To stay safe during the pandemic, I’m shooting videos at my home studio and transferring the files to my producer for editing. I’m also cutting my own hair and doing my own nails…thank you for being patient with the changes while we all do our best to stop the spread of this virus. Stay safe, my friends.
