Step by Step to Pattern-3

  1. A pattern project with one pattern and the desired settings is created.
    1
    Open Knit Explorer.
    2
    Then, in Knit Explorer under Módulos de estrutura -> Predefinição -> Petinet select the knitting element Petinet, Malha v to draw.
    3
    Draw the desired structure.

    4
    Select a structure in the desired width and height.
    5
    Create from selection:
    6
    Draw-in the pattern element with the help of the center of the pattern field several times to the left and right into the basic pattern.
    7
    Then, in Knit Explorer under Módulos de estrutura -> Predefinição -> Tipos básicos de tricotagem select the knitting element Perlé 1x1 to draw.

: For working with PTS - different stitch length index in one technical row - the STOLL knitting elements Estrutura from the Knit Explorer already have different stitch lengths allocated. The stitch lengths are allocated in the control columns, as well as needle-exactly to the needle action.

    8
    Activate Aplicar graduaçãoin the cursor attributes.
    9
    Draw the Perlé 1x1 knitting element in the design pattern.
  1. The needle-exact stitch length from the knitting element will be entered in the design pattern.

Presentation of the design pattern in stitch length (NPJ)

  • There is no stitch length allocated in the grey areas.
    This means that the standard stitch lengths from the control columns are used here.
  • In the areas with drawn-in stitch lengths, the standard stitch lengths are overwritten and the new stitch lengths are used.

Result:
Different stitch lengths are available in a single technical row.
= Working with PTS.

:
When positioning the knitting element Perlé 1x1 be sure that it is positioned correctly to Começo, 1x1.
This means that the structure 1x1 from the start without racking has to continue running in the structure of the 1x1 half cardigan.

Apply stitch lengths from knitting element to the control columns when drawing:

Condition:
The knitting element Perlé 1x1 has different stitch length entries in the control columns and as in the basic pattern.

  1. Select a knitting element.
  2. : The Cursor Attributes window with the currently available attributes appears.
  3. Via the Aceitar colunas de controle button make the desired setting to draw:
  4. - Activated
    Stitch lengths from the knitting element are entered in the control columns.
  5. - Deactivated
    Stitch lengths from the knitting element are not entered in the control columns.
  6. Draw the knitting element in the design pattern.
  7. : The stitch length is present in the control column and is therefore valid for the entire technical row. No Power Tension Setting (NPJ) is created.

Apply stitch lengths from knitting elements exactly to the needles when drawing into the design pattern:

Condition:
In the knitting element Perlé 1x1 there are entered different stitch lengths in the needle actions.

  1. Select a knitting element.
  2. : The Cursor Attributes window with the currently available attributes appears.
  3. Via the Aplicar graduação button make the desired setting to draw:
  4. - Activated
    Stitch lengths from the knitting element will be applied to the design pattern.
  5. - Deactivated
    Stitch lengths from the knitting element will not be applied to the design pattern.
  6. Draw the knitting element in the design pattern.
  7. : Now there are different stitch lengths available for PTS in a single technical row.

Draw stitch lengths from the table needle-exactly into the design pattern:

Condition:

  • In the design pattern there are drawn different structures by areas.
  • The standard stitch lengths are entered in the control columns and .
  1. In the status bar of the design pattern, switch from Cor da amostra to Graduação.
  2. Open the selection list in the Início ribbon under Parâmetros at Janela de ferramentas and select the Graduação (NP) tool window.
  3. : The Graduação (NP) tool window appears.
  4. Select the Predefinição tab.
  5. Select the desired stitch lengths with the CTRL key in the and columns additively.
  6. : The stitch length for the front and rear needle bed are at the cursor.
  7. Draw stitch lengths in the desired structure area needle-exactly into the design pattern.
  8. : Now, different stitch lengths for PTS exist in one knitting row.

Result:

1

Grey = no colored entry of a stitch length

In these areas, the default stitch length from the control columns and are used.

: The default values must not be deleted from the control columns.

    Allocate the desired attributes to the new shape lines:

Binding-off of the left external edge of the shape

Binding-off of the right external edge of the shape

: The shape lines for binding-off at the external edge of the shape are at the same height in the line table.
During the technical processing these shape lines binding-off are moved regarding the height according to the carriage direction.

  • Height until binding-off even numbered: Binding-off right before left
  • Height until binding-off odd-numbered: Binding-off left before right

: The knitting sequence when binding-off depends on the carriage stroke!
The height (number of knitting rows) until binding-off is as desired, since the binding-off edges are moved in height by the technical processing according to the carriage direction.

  1. The newly created shape element is displayed in the graphic and in the line table as well.

Shape Element Type: Neckline symmetric

Positioning of a shape element in the basic shape

:
Every shape element gets a link (anchor) to a shape point in the basic shape during its creation.

Condition:

  • A basic shape with a shape element Decote is created.
  1. Position the cursor in the shape element.
  2. Reposition the shape element with the LMB pressed.
    - or -
    Move the shape with the arrow keys of the keyboard.
    - or -
    Open the coordinate display in the shape element double-clicking LMB and enter values.
  3. : The anchor point becomes visible with its X and Y coordinates in the Decote shape element.
  4. Change the positioning if necessary.

Possibilities for editing an anchor via the context menu

Editar

Tool window for manually changing the values of X and Y coordinates.

Distribuir âncora

Ungroup the grouped anchor in one anchor for X coordinate and one for Y coordinate, to be able to anchor one anchor with another shape element.

: An anchor contains both values for the X and Y coordinates by default.

    21
    Allocate the desired attributes to the new shape lines:

Variants of necklines

  • Neckline start with only one needle (shape odd-numbered in the total width)
  • Neckline start with 2 needles (shape even numbered in the total width)
  • Neckline start with more than 2 needles -> Binding-off at the start
