Sally Holt at knitCompanion has turned her powerful system to Romi Hill and her gorgeous shawls. This is year four of her 7 Small Shawls Series, can you believe it? Wasn’t the first year just last week? This year her topic is Friends, she’s naming each one of her shawls after a member of her Ravelry group. There are 7 shawl patterns and 3 extra patterns. The first extra is a available now, A Cowl for Jeanne.
This app updates with each shawl release, adding the new pattern to knitCompanion’s amazing system and a technique video featuring Romi.
If you haven’t tried the knitCompanion system the designer apps are a re great way to get a taste. knitCompanion allows a knitter to see the written and charted patterns at the same time, mark and save in many spots in a pattern with place holders and reminders – highlighters, stitch markers and pop up notes. It’s a wonderfully organized program.
I really like that I can keep very accurate track of my knitting, especially lace, with this app, but what I love is getting to see Romi’s smiling face, talking me through each pattern!
7 Small Shawls is also available as just a PDF series.
What a great idea! Lovely cowl. Please enter my name.

I have subscribed to all of Romi’s series and love everything she does – so simple but classic.

I always print out patterns and mark them up as I go along, but rely on ravelry & you tube for specific technique help. Never thought to use (or even look for) knitting apps. Very cool! Please enter my name in the draw.
I’ve been admiring Romi’s designs for years but have never tried one. The tool sounds fantastic!
Romi always has such beautiful shawls.
I have been hearing about Knit Companion, but have yet to try it…maybe this was just the impetus that I needed!!!
What a great combination–Romi and Knit Companion!
Just downloaded the Knit Companion app. Now I’m crossing my fingers I win this… also that the skill question isn’t to hard.
Yes…definitely please enter my name!!! I had no idea, this kind of technology existed for knitters…fantastic concept!!
Love Romi’s work — still learning to use Knit Companion, but it’s so cool!

Love all of Romi’s patterns…please random number generator pick me!
I love the idea of an app that updates with patterns!
Sounds really neat – but isn’t KC only available on apple devices? I’m sure I remember reading that somewhere
I’ve admired many of her patterns and would love to knit this with the purple malabrigo worsted stashed. And I have an ipad…what fun.
I love Romi’s shawls – this app sounds fantastic!
I’d love the chance to try out KnitCompanion with this app! (And Romi’s designs are always worth a knit!)
What a great invention! I love how technology has made our ancient art of knitting more accessible and ‘travel-able’ with less fuss. Pick me, please!!
I’m curious about KC and it would be extremely awesome to get Romi’s patterns.
What an awesome idea! I would love to win, but will be checking out the app anyway.
I love Romi’s shawls. I also print out charts and mark them in multi colours as I go along. The app sounds wonderful. Thank you for the giveaway.
I have been struggling through knit companion trying to learn to use it. I know having this pattern already set up would be an amazing help. Count me in!
This sounds like an amazing idea!
This sounds like a great idea. Hope it works for me.
Looks like a very interesting app. I think I recall someone in my knitting guild mentioning that they are using it. I’m just wondering how useful it would be on my iPod. I can barely read on the tiny screen. Probably much more useful on a laptop or iPad.
Year 4 already?? Where have I been? But I love Romi’s designs and can’t wait to see these new ones.
How neat is that!!!
Thanks for the great giveaway!
what a great idea. i’d love to check out this app

I love knit companion, and this app looks great!
I would love to win the app!
I love apps, patterns, and Romi. Sounds like a great combo.
Romi’s designs are great! Would love to try this.
I just replaced my old iPad (the original iPad that couldn’t be updated to iOS 7) with the new iPad Air so I could take advantage of the new features of KnitCompanion.
I have the PDF version because I still have the “old” iPad. But Christmas is right around the corner and maybe this would be the perfect nudge?!
Thanks for offering 🙂
Ooh, this looks wonderful!
Wonderful!! Love me a shawl…which is something I NEVER would have guessed until I started knitting them….
Just love the app! I am just starting to use it, as I just got my first IPad.
I hadn’t heard of the app-that sounds very cool! Losing my place is always a challenge for me.
Wow, somehow I missed knowing this app existed and yet it seems to be exactly what I’ve been needing. Fantastic!
Oh Please, please, please! I want that app and that scarf. I want it so bad I’ll probably have to buy it if I don’t win…
Romi was the first designer I ever favorited on Ravelry.
Romi’s designs are beautiful, and I’d love to try out the app. Thanks for the giveaway.
I love Romi designs. Remember the Knotty hat on Knitty?
Something like that would definitely help my knitting!
Ooooh! Yes, please!
I would love to try this!
Sounds like fun! I’ve been a Goodreader devotee so far, but my friends keep telling me I should broaden my iPad horizons.
Precisely how long did it acquire you to post “knittyBlog | Knit Companion Designer Series Giveaway: Romi!

Love Knit Companion!
I am waffling about Knit Companion, though I use pdf patterns and books on my iPhone all the time. I have the trial version but I haven’t really played with it. Maybe this would encourage me to try it for real.
Though I use other knitting apps, I’ve not yet tried this one. Sure hope I win a copy of the Romi App! Thanks for a great contest …
How great! I would love a chance to try knitCompanion.
A new Ap for me to play with would be fun.
This app sounds great. I’d love to be able to try it and make this cozy looking cowl!
Wow, KnitCompanion sounds like something to have! And combined with Romi’s patterns–excellent! Thanks for the contest!
Sounds like an interesting app, pretty shawl too.
I have just ordered an iPad last night and can’t wait to use this program. I have been reading about it for the past year.
Pretty! Pick me, please!
Beautiful!
I think you guys have some of the best giveaways.
Not familiar with knitcompanion, but do enjoy – and have knit – Romi patterns. A unique chance to try something new…
It would make a wonderful Birthday present for me!
Have seen so many shawls from romi that take your breathe away… I would love to partake
Ooh, pretty!
Very nice!
What a cool app. My system of handwritten notes that get lost when projects are hibernating is not quite as effective…
I struggle with lace knitting, so this might be just the help I need!
knitters are certainly keeping up with the times!

I purchased the PDF- but the companion sounds really cool
