Step by Step to Pattern-1

A pattern project with one pattern and the desired settings is created.

1: Work with the following drawing tools:

Group Drawing Tools :

Pencil (V)
Line (B)
Rectangle (N)

Without the selection of a pattern color - Yarn Color:
A selection is generated.

While drawing with drawing tools without the selection of a pattern color, a
selection is generated.
It can be deleted with the shortcut Ctrl+D.

With the selection of a pattern color - Yarn Color:
The yarn color is drawn into the basic pattern.

Deleting all cursor attributes: Key ESC
Deleting of individual cursor attributes with X via the corresponding attribute

Delete Color

For drawing the design pattern, with it several yarn carriers may be necessary for each yarn color.

Bobbin with color
Not used within design pattern
Bobbin with color +
Used within design pattern

: Yarn carriers will not be allocated automatically to a yarn carrier rail.
Yarn carrier home position can be determined automatically.

2: Change the width and height of the pattern.

Group Modify :

Zoom (function button Z)
Delete / insert row(s) / column(s)
Select row(s) / column(s) and insert / delete

3: Draw-in colored stripes in any yarn color from row 27 at the height of 18 rows.

4: Adjust the view of the control columns.

: If the basic pattern is too small for the shape, then the size of the basic pattern will be automatically adjusted to the size of the shape.
Attention: Perhaps the color strap needs to be adapted.

8: Open the line table by the Line Table button to get an explanation of a shape.

Structure of a basic shape

	A	Starting line
	B	Area with shape modification because of widening
	C	Area without shape modification
	D	Area with shape modification because of narrowing
	E	End line

Recommendation: Create a shape of an even numbered height in total.

Fading-out

Exchange of the knitting mode at the shape edges

While cutting out the shape, the knitting mode is replaced at the shape edges.

Cutting-out the shape

Grey area = Outside shape
White area = Within shape

: This results in the shape edges for fading-out, widening, and narrowing.

Marked area (blue):

Fade-out width
Number of stitches, that should be replaced with a different knitting mode.
Fade-out content
Selection of the desired knitting mode for the specified fading-out width

Widening

Widening of a fabric piece

Step width of widening

: Widening by 1 needle only

Step height of widening

= Number of rows between two widening steps

: Step height is as desired.

Widening Width

Depending from the selected widening module

: When widening by 1 needle with the Widening, Standard module, the widening width is 1 by default.

Narrowing

Narrowing of a fabric piece

: The transfer of stitches results in double stitches (fashioning marks).

Step Width

1 needle (stitch) narrowing
2-needle-narrowing (stitches)
3-needle-narrowing (stitches)
From a narrowing greater than 4 needles (stitches) a binding-off is carried out

Step height

= Number of rows between two narrowing steps

: Step height is as desired.

Narrowing Width

Depending on the knitting mode of the basic pattern

Rules for a raglan sleeve shape in the SJ knitting mode

Shape Attributes	Rules
Knitting Mode	Single Jersey
Step width of widening	1 needle (stitch) per knitting row
Step height of widening	As desired
Quantity of rows without shape modification	As desired
Step width when narrowing	1 - 3 needles (stitches)
Step height when narrowing	As desired
