Knit is not a full-blown ORM/ODM, but rather an extended "data mapper" that abstracts away a persistent store behind a "repository" pattern.

Features overview:

- Repository pattern (with methods: `find`, `findOne`, `add`, `update`, `remove`, `save`as well as magic `findByPropertyName` and `findOneByPropertyName`).
- Building queries in form of "criteria" arrays.
- Swappable data stores.
- Various events dispatched (will read, will write, will update, will remove, did read, did update, did remove).
- Easy programmatic joins (which means joins between stores).
- Swappable data mappers.

Check [KnitBundle](https://github.com/michaldudek/KnitBundle) for Symfony2 integration.
