Repeat a Piece
By default knitCompanion allows you to repeat your piece. When you get to the last row and tap the one-tap marker, it returns you to the first row of the piece to begin the next repeat. It keeps track of:
- the number of times you have repeated the piece.
- the total rows knit for the piece.
To view your progress on a piece, long tap the one-tap marker. Show Me
You can set a limit to stop after a specific number of repeats. Use this when you know exactly how many times you want to repeat the piece and want knitCompanion to stop you from advancing beyond that fixed number. For example, the pattern says to repeat a chart a total of 3 times. Set the Piece Repeat Limit to 3. Then when you get to the last row of the 3rd repeat, knitCompanion will let you know you are finished.
