Knitting with apple watch

Is there a way of knitting with apple watch without it counting steps, and without taking the watch off? If I take it of, I often forget to take it on again. Then the hole counting my steps is wasted… :) And I like to knitt when I have five minutes.

This is quite a problem for a lot of knitters and as you have found out you can take the watch off but you don't want that.

The only other workaround is to turn off fitness tracking;

Settings/privacy/fitness tracking

But then you have to remember to turn it back on again.
