Color Arrangements

颜色排列

Color Arrangements are modules that can assign different knitting cycles to different color areas in the pattern.

A CA in general consists of a search area and a processing area.
In the search area you can find the colors to be searched for in the pattern.
In the processing area you define the knitting sequence, the structure and the pattern color that are applied in the color areas for every color.
