Sure! I don’t have any knitting software to share (like DesignaKnit, which is paid and copyrighted), but I can definitely recommend some options. DesignaKnit is great if you’re into both hand and machine knitting—it does garment shaping, stitch pattern design, and even interactive knitting, though it’s pricey and Windows-only. If you're just doing hand knitting, there are simpler (and sometimes free) alternatives like StitchMastery for chart work, or KnitBird for basic pattern design. For budget-conscious folks, Stitch Fiddle online is a fun place to play with charts, and some even use Excel creatively! It really depends on whether you’re charting stitches, drafting garments, or working with machines. Let me know what you’re hoping to do—I can point you to the best fit!

Knitting software can be a great way to plan, design, and organize your knitting projects. Here are a few types of knitting software that might interest you, depending on what you’re looking to do:

1. Knitting Design Software:

• Knit Companion
  A popular app among knitters, especially for following patterns. It allows you to annotate your patterns, track your progress, and keep everything in one place. It works with both PDFs and custom patterns.
• Stitch Fiddle
  A free online tool for creating knitting charts. Whether you're designing a simple cable pattern or a lace motif, this is a wonderful way to visualize your ideas before you start knitting.
• Designer’s Workshop by Yarnspirations
  For those who want to design garments or accessories, this tool allows you to design, visualize, and calculate yarn requirements. It’s perfect for anyone looking to create custom knitting patterns from scratch.
  
  

2. Knitting Pattern Management:

• Ravelry
  While it’s not technically “software” in the traditional sense, Ravelry is a fantastic platform for tracking your knitting projects, managing your yarn stash, and discovering patterns. There’s a whole community aspect to it as well, so you can see what others are making and get inspired.
• PatternSync
  A great way to store and organize your knitting patterns digitally. You can create folders, keep track of your progress, and even print out patterns with your personal notes and adjustments.
