Keeping Track?!

 How do you keep track of your knitting?  Especially if using charts?  I like charts—once you become familiar with charted symbols, your brain co-ordinates with your hands to make knitting a breeze.  

For years I used sticky notes to underline where the row was.  Brown headed daughter gave me these long sticky notes.  Now, I’m low on the long ones—so the colorful post a notes will work.  Just takes more of them— One problem with sticky—after moving the notes several times, all the sticky won’t stick any more!


The other day I found my magnet board!  Where had it been—right under my nose, of course.  Once again, I pressed it into service. Those long magnet strips work well—don’t move them any though when off to the side!
Disaster!  

Another problem—can’t use the magnet board for more than one project at a time.
Then, I remembered There was an app for that!  
KnitCompanion is free app that allows you to import a pattern and is a way to underline your knitting row.


If you check online, you can find other methods that will keep track of your knitting—but, for me—
Back to the sticky notes!!  Besides, post a note comes in such pretty colors!
