Just choose your styling options from the drop-down menus, plus either a standard
or custom size, and your pattern is automatically generated for you. This program
will generate pattern instructions for use in hand or machine knitting or crochet
using your data, or from one of the built in tables of standard body measurements.
The program will save this data giving you a permanent record of what you have
knit and when.
The pattern is generated as both a schematic diagram with measurements, plus a
proper written version, and these can then be printed and automatically saved
for any further projects.
