A knit design system for designing knit fabrics

摘要

Each design data of intarsia, jacquard, and structural stitches is separately stored and independently processed. Each design data is stored in an internal data format (22) where one pixel is allocated to each loop and is compensated for the aspect ratio of loops by affine transformation (24) before being displayed on a monitor (30). Similarly input coordinates from a stylus (16) are inputted in a coordinate system corresponding to the internal data format and then converted into monitor address with coordinate affine transformation.
