Grey and lemon set k

This is the third time I've made this little pattern as I'm trying to make sure it works before I decide whether to do another knitalong
Made a slight mistake in using this stitch pattern but apart from that I'm quite pleased with how it turned out The lemon colour has a bit more yellow to it than the picture shows Wish I had more yarn as I would have made a cardigan to go with it ,I can knit but a photographer I'm not😊

Trying to Get Organized

Does anyone know of an app where I can store ALL my patterns. I have some in Ibooks, Drop Box, and Pocket. Plus I have patterns on Mary Maxim, Loveknitting and other websites. I would like to get them all in one place. Thank you for any advice.
