The KNT-IT (Knitting Needle Tip Inspection Tool):  A Comparative Pointology Application Experience

(why yes i might have gotten carried away with the naming)

a cat says: about knitting needles and how pointy they are CLAWS ARE POINTIER!

This is geeky! I have very carefully measured a lot of knitting needles. This tool draws diagrams of their tips and lets you compare any two to see which is the pointiest. This means that if you are looking for a pointier needle, or a blunter needle, you can compare it to what you are using right now, or see how it stacks up against your favourite needle.

The Chart Colour Counter

I built this because I design knitting patterns with lots of large charts (The Sunset Sweater and The Catbutt Sweater, for example). It counts all the stitches in each shade, to help work out how much yarn you'll need.

The Cat Gallery

I like admiring cats, and so I solicit cat pictures at yarn shows. This section is definitely in development so please excuse the chaos and just admire the cats.
