Support to allow you to print your patterns directly from your device has been added! We've also made the pattern making process require less steps. We're really excited about all the improvements, and bringing you the best Sokompanion so far!
We've added centimeter support for our international friends. There are also some direct references to Cat Bordhi's book for your convenience. We find Cat's average size foot chart (p.118) very helpful in case you are in a hurry to get started, but the foot you need is not close by! There are also some small visual changes, and minor bug fixes.
Welcome to the new home of Sokompanion on the web. We've partnered with Cat Bordhi to bring the first companion app to one of her books, New Pathways for Sock Knitters, Book One

The 'review' left by the notorious TinkerKnits 🤣
Tell me you don't own the book nor do you understand the Master Numbers system without telling me 🤣
On page 110 of her book, Cat specifies that she used whole and half numbers. In the case of quarter measurements, you would decide if you want to round up or down to the nearest whole and half number. In the Master Numbers process then, a 9.25 measurement could be rounded to a 9 or 9.5, depending on the fit you prefer. We've always preferred to round up.

This app implements the Master Numbers system, which means the tables in the book provide results with a built-in 10% negative ease for a good sock fit. You work with our system, we don't work with yours. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
However, can you save your own modified master numbers patterns in the Sokompanion app? The answer is yes!
You can save those patterns by creating a new pattern in the app, and entering each of your patterns numbers. No calculations required, just tap the save button, done.
