Knitamus vs Commonplace

Maybe you're the kind of knitter that always has things in order. You'd love nothing better than to set up each row of a pattern before you even cast on. Or maybe you're the type that dives in with abandon... but would love a lifeline to easily get started again, no matter how long that shawl or hat or intricate baby sweater has been lost in the bottom of your bag. Either way or somewhere in between, Knitamus is designed for you. Each Knitamus project can have as many pieces as you need (for sleeves, front, and back, for instance). And each piece has a single counter so you always know which row you're on. Easily display as many PDF pages or chart photos as you need in the special chart window with an adjustable highlight bar that remembers each row. You can quickly page through to set the highlight for every row before you even start, including repeating highlights, or you can just get started and each row will be remembered as you go in case you knit it again. Easily add notes, repeating or not, to any row at any time. iCloud sync allows you to work on your iPhone when you're out and about, or enjoy the larger space of your iPad when it's available. The Ravelry connection keeps your photos and project status up-to-date automatically. The Apple Watch app will display notes and repeat information for current projects found in your iCloud account, or you can use it as a simple counter without iCloud. I hope you enjoy Knitamus!

We are drowning in content, but starving for wisdom. For centuries, history’s greatest minds —from Marcus Aurelius to Virginia Woolf — kept a "Commonplace Book." It was a central archive to curate the quotes, anecdotes, and observations that shaped their worldview and cultivated their wisdom. But today, we have lost this practice. We consume more than ever, but retain less. Our most profound insights are buried in screenshot folders, lost in generic "Notes" apps, or forgotten in the infinite scroll. Commonplace is the return to depth. We have reimagined the historical Commonplace Book for the modern thinker and communicator. We combined the tactile beauty of a personal library with the power of digital recall. WHY COMMONPLACE? - A Sanctuary, Not a Feed Social media is designed to be forgotten. Commonplace is designed to be kept. We replaced the cluttered list view with a calm, editorial-style interface that gives weight and dignity to the words that resonate with you. - Curate, Don't Just Collect. A library is of little use if you never visit it. Unlike a standard notebook, Commonplace uses intelligent recall to gently surface and test you on past entries, ensuring the wisdom you curate today is remembered tomorrow. - A Quiet Place to Think. Beautiful typography on warm cream paper, with a dark mode for late-night reading. When you enter the Writer, the interface fades away — no toolbars, no distractions. Just you and the ideas you want to capture. - For Thinkers & Communicators. Whether you are writing a speech, leading a team, or journaling for clarity, your best ideas are now at your fingertips. Capture instantly; organize effortlessly. • Private & Timeless. Your mind belongs to you. Commonplace is built with a privacy-first architecture. No ads, no tracking, or notifications. Just a quiet space for your thoughts. Start building your collection. Join the tradition. Download Commonplace today.
