Technical Modules

Module technique

A Module technique is a knitting element that is entered into the pattern by the technical processing according to specific rules.
Technical modules only contain technical rows and cannot be drawn-in manually into the pattern.

A Module technique generally consists of tiles that are applied in specific situations.

Each tile consists of a search area and a processing area.
The search area contains the specifications to be searched for in the pattern.
The processing area contains the structure that is to be applied in the pattern.

The clear identification of a technical module can be found in the properties of the knitting element under Type d'élément de tricotage . You can define and modify the Sous-type d'élément de tricotage but not the specification of the knitting element type.
