KnitSpeaker is an exciting app for knitters. This unique, patent-pending, app makes
following complicated pattern repeats easier because it will READ the steps of
the repeat to you at a pace that’s right for you. No mistakes, no losing your
place, no forgetting your next step.

Anyone who knits knows what it is like to follow a
complicated pattern repeat understands this:
You read the directions trying to remember as much of the row’s steps as
possible. Then you must take your eyes
away from the directions, look at your hands, and do what you remembered from
the directions….until you run out of memory.
Then you have to look again at the directions….find where you left
off….and try to mentally retain another set of steps. Frustration happens when you always have to
refer to the directions again and again, and endure the nagging possibility of
making a mistake.
The patent pending KnitSpeaker app makes knitting better
because it is as if someone is quietly reading to you the difficult-to-remember,
complicated, series of steps of your stitch pattern. Take a few minutes to
input the stitches and rows of your pattern repeat to save hours of constantly
referring to the stitch directions on the page.
Enjoy increased speed, efficiency, and that trouble- free feeling.
It is easy to use KnitSpeaker.
•Name the project and identify the yarn used, weight of
yarn, gauge, needle size, publication, and any other notes you may need as a
reference or information to return to a project previously entered.
•The next screen allows you to simply select the steps,
which are commonly used abbreviations (k for knit or p for purl, etc.),
followed by the number of stitches involved. (select K and align 2 to enter
K2) by aligning the number with the
step.
•Press the check button to enter the step and the number of
stitches involved. It will appear in the
Row 1 line.
• Place the amount of time you think you need to do the each
step by inserting the + from KnitSpeaker time-spacer button. Your pattern entry might look like this:
(k2++++, P4++++++++ yo++++, k2tog++++++).
•Continue to input stitch by stitch, row by row of your
pattern stitch repeat.
•Each step you choose has a voice recording linked to it so
you can listen to each step while you knit.
Each + represents one second and you can adjust how many seconds you
need at any time.
•To check your repeat for row 1, press Read Row, and you
will be able to follow your text with your eyes and hear what you selected to
confirm that you have selected the steps of your row correctly. Make any
corrections and continue with remaining rows of the repeat.
