Knitrino is a newly launched technology created by two sisters publishing interactive patterns. Knitrino is like Google Maps for knitting patterns: Click a stitch to see how to do it, highlight your current place, track your progress step by step, see charts in your yarn colors, see only your size, and more. Knitrino’s goal is to make knitting more accessible, and to help people grow into the knitters they aspire to be! This innovative app is for knitters longing for better pattern usability and navigation using small screens. There is no PDF associated with this pattern.

Knitrino is available in both iOS and Android, to get the pattern in Knitrino (or be invited to install) click this link from your phone.

About this pattern
Boundary-breaking designer Yigitcan Vatansever is known for their creative approach to knitwear design, and Rulebreaker does not disappoint. Inspired by rebellion to systematic order, Rulebreaker is intended to open our minds to see the world through new perspectives. A 2-color stranded colorwork cowl, Rulebreaker begins unassumingly, with systematic wavy lines around the bottom of the cowl. As we progress, we see the lines interrupted by protrusions that cause interference, changing the waveforms. This is a reminder that we should always keep an open mind and try to see the world differently.

As the colorwork progresses, we have long stretches in which color A in unused and ladderback jacquard (invisible stranding) is used. This fantastic technique creates a smooth fabric & no need to lock floats. It will leave you saying, like test knitter Laura:

This ladder business is magic

What knitters are saying about Knitrino

“Wendy: Keeping track and following a pattern in Knitrino is effortless in a way I didn’t know I was missing till I had it.”

McKenzie: “I am super impressed with Knitrino. I thought working from an app would feel cumbersome, but instead it has made my usual pattern placekeeping system on paper seem cumbersome.”

Michelle: “I never want to knit another pattern that’s not in Knitrino ever again.”
