Features

  • Up to 80 stitches × 80 rows for large colorwork and fair isle charts.
  • Optional bold accent lines every N stitches/rows to group repeats easily.
  • Row numbers on left (WS) and right (RS) sides for bidirectional reading.
  • Stitch count numbers along the top and bottom.
  • Symbol key palette — click any knitting symbol to add it to the legend (k, p, yo, k2tog, ssk, cables, etc.).
  • Custom grid and background colors, plus a Notes / Materials section.
  • Print directly or export as PDF.
