Sometimes a chart will be wider than your device screen. knitCompanion provides a variety of tools so you can easily keep track, even when scrolling side-to-side for a wide piece. The row marker will always stay on the current row as you zoom and scroll.

The following additional tools are helpful for navigation and tracking your progress along a row.

Double-Tap Areas

• Center: Double-tap in the center to toggle between fit-width and fit-height.
• Edges: Double-tap on the edge (left, right) to scroll directly to that edge of the piece.

Stitch Markers

• Sliding Stitch Marker: Use this to keep track of your spot along a row as you knit across. Very handy for knowing the last stitch you worked when scrolling side-to-side.
• Stitch Markers: Use these to mark convenient spots along the width of your chart. Then you can knit to a Stitch Marker, slide to the next stitch marker, knit to it. Repeat as needed across the width of your chart. Add Stitch Markers

Row Reset Style

When knitting in the round or when wrong side rows are not charted, the Row Reset Style and Reset Slider options will automatically scroll back to the starting edge of the chart. Show Me

• None: This is the default setting. When you advance the row marker, the chart will stay in the same position and will not shift left or right. This is most useful when all rows are charted.
• Right: This will scroll your wide chart back to the right edge ready to start the next row. Very handy for knitting in the round or when wrong side rows are not charted.
• Left: This will scroll your wide piece back to the left edge. Very handy for wide text pieces and some styles of left hand knitting.
• Reset Slider: This will shift your sliding marker based on your Row Reset Style so it is ready for the next row.

Voice Commands (Apple only)

You can use Voice Commands to slide your piece side-to-side without putting your knitting down. Each slide will be slightly less than one screen width. Pro Tip: Add Stitch Markers spaced so you can see one on both right and left edges as described above.

• Right: Drags piece to the right (no effect if the left edge already showing)
• Left: Drags piece to the left (no effect if the right edge already showing)
