An object of the invention is to quickly display a simulation image of knitting stitches approximate to an actually knitted fabric. When an image is present in the position of the knitting stitches 12, 13 corresponding between an upper layer 1 and a lower layer 2 , the images of knitting stitches for pattern 11 or transformed knitting stitches 12, 13 in the upper layer 1 having the highest priority are displayed. In each layer, it is possible to perform an editing operation of selecting combinations of knitting stitches previously registered in a form of module from a library and changing the position and the shape of the image of the knitting stitches. The knitting stitches in the periphery of the knitting stitch for a pattern 11 are substituted for the transformed knitting stitches 12, 13 reflecting the influence of the making of the knitting stitch for pattern. Image data on basic knitting stitches 10 , the knitting stitch for a pattern 11 , and transformed knitting stitches 12, 13 is created utilizing the images of actual knitted fabrics or computer graphics and is stored. By combining the stored image data, a simulation image of knitting stitches like that of an actually knitted fabric can be quickly displayed.
