Chart Keeper - review by Diedre

This is such a handy gadget for the Knitter! And a must for lace and color-work knitters!

The chart keeper sets up like a small easel in just a second and it can fit in tight areas, even a tray on a plane.

The chart keeper comes with four magnets which hold the chart on the stand. Move the magnet from line to line to track your place on your chart or pattern. The chart keeper is small and flat which allows it to fit nicely inside most knitting bags.

The best part about the chart keeper you never loose your place. Once you are done knitting, just fold and stow the chart. The next time you set up the chart keeper it opens up to where you left off.

Not only is it great for lace and intarsia charts, it is convenient for the photo copy of the pattern I am knitting so that I can easily follow along without getting lost. Add the electronic counter and you have a fantastic combination of tools that keep the knitter on track and able to concentrate on just having fun knitting. Thanks Knit Picks!
