Knit with Lucy is like having Lucy Neatby sitting next to you as you tackle challenging new techniques while knitting her patterns. This dynamic app is a multimedia e-book of patterns that combines some of our favorite Lucy Neatby designs with knitCompanion’s patent pending interactive pattern system, as well as a huge library of Learn with Lucy video content and audio notations recorded by Lucy.   Knit with Lucy breaks new ground in providing highly interactive content combined with video, audio, and dynamic pattern instructions.

* Shoulder Shaping
* Two color techniques including holding the yarn, stranding/weaving, and color effect options.

(Please be patient during app download, this is a lot of video! It is not streamed to your device at time of use, rather it is contained in the app itself. With one app download all video content is available directly on your device with no internet delays or challenges.)

All patterns are setup and ready to knit, with options for sizes and knitters choices selectable by the knitter.  Video is embedded throughout the pattern for easy access, and it can be viewed at the same time as the pattern instructions or full screen.  Each design has a well organized introductory page including a picture of the finished object, ability to view the PDF, details on the techniques and a history of knitting projects for the pattern.  

The app is powered by knitCompanion, and enables the same patent pending guided pattern system without the work to setup the pattern (to setup your own patterns you will need the knitCompanion app). All projects can be synced to dropbox and shared between devices.  This is a universal app and with your purchase you can access it on all your Apple mobile devices.
