I know this is a bit older and you have probably already chosen a reader. But as a knitter who had some of the same questions I can now answer some I could not before.
I just received my Nova Pro and installed the android version of Knitcompanion on it. It works fairly well, though it did take a bit of playing with settings to finds out the best way to accommodate the eink. I would not use it for intricate color work or really complicated charts but basic charts and to keep track of where you are in the PDF it works fine. And honestly intricate things like those are not the type of projects I would want to travel or move around with anyway so I don't really see that as a downside. For me it will work perfectly well as a mobile copy that I will be less likely to lose and can sync my progress across devices.
I did tweak the sleep settings, and turned bluetooth and wifi off and had the chart open for over an hour with no drop in the battery (granted the lights were off) and unlike the kindle when you close the cover it will go into sleep mode.
There is also the option with the Pro version of the Nova to just make notes on the PDF itself.
This was not in any way the deciding factor in choosing the Nova, but I will say it is a nice bonus.
