Rules for generating a shape: saddle shoulder

1

Normally with a saddle shoulder the shape of the sleeve is longer than the shape of the body.

The length differences between sleeve and body will automatically be compensated in all the shapes until the sleeve-body connection.

2

From sleeve-body connection up to the shoulder edge in the body, the row number in the sleeve and in the body has to be the same.

3

Specification of the row number for the saddle:
The row number for the saddle (2) can be two or three times the number of rows of the shoulder edge in the body (1).

4

Row compensation 3:1 or 2:1

A 3:1 row compensation is used by default.
If a 2:1 compensation is used, then Saddle shoulder with 2:1 compensation should be activated in the ShapeWizard.

5

The saddle adjusts to the shoulder by means of the different number of knitting rows.

The row ratios between the saddle and the body:
The shoulder edge in the body should contain in each row a narrowing by three stitches. Recommendation: Narrow only by 2 stitches with 2x2 rib.

1

Saddle shoulder inserted straight

The stepping of the saddle shoulder of the back shall have a narrowing of three stitches every two rows.

2

The row compensation is in the
back sleeve: 2:2
front sleeve: 2:0.
