how to use

This site supports "bar knitting" (not crocket)
It converts knitting patterns (k1, p2) into the knitting symbols charts!
We aim to help you with 80% accuracy, so please fill the rest with DIY and enjoy !

* basic usage *
1. Write "Stitch count" and "knitting pattern" in the white space
2. Click the "into a symbol chart" button and go to the newly created page
+ Click the "PDF Download " if necessary

* The pattern will not be saved, so make a copy of it somewhere
* Always reload the page before making any changes

* rules of writing *
- Use alphabets , number and symbols as in the sample
- If you don't need marker, ignore the entry field
- To use the marker, fill in the marker form as in the sample
* The marker pattern and Gauge(CO) must be tied together as equal
(Ex) k12,pm,k18,pm,k12,pm,k8 = 12 + 18 + 12 + 8 = 50 = Gauge(CO):50
- For size expansion, choose one number and delete the rest
Example: K18 (20, 24, 27) -> K20

* if something goes wrong ... *
the symbol may be different from the expected one, or not exist
- Mistype
- The original pattern may be wrong
- Make sure "(" and ")" or "[" and "]" are in a set
- Is the symbol on the list on this site?
- Are you using Microsoft's edge? it doesn't work

Row / Round "REP" or "text instructions" doesn't work
- create the repetition part by yourself and uncheck the Auto-Row/Rnd repetition processing
(Procedure below)

whole process
1. reload the page
2. uncheck the √ of "Auto - Row/Rnd Rep"
3. you edit the pattern that didn't work
4. write down the new edited pattern
5. press "into a symbol chart" button
3.You edit the pattern
(example)

#before#
Row 1 : k1,p2,k1-tog
Row 2 and all even numbered rows work as the prev row
Row 3 : p3,yo,p1
Row 4 :


#after#
Row 1 : k1,p2,k1-tog
Row 2 : k1,p2,k1-tog
Row 3 : p3,yo,p1
Row 4 : p3,yo,p1

* when the problem persists *
- Somethin wrong with automatic conversion ?

* processing logics *
Processing logic
1. recognizing the "patterns and stitch count" entered in the form
2. row/rnd repetition process (optional)
3. processing of knitting patterns "k1, p2, etc" into the symbols
4. knitting chart display

In "2. row/rnd repetition processing", the "row" number entered by the user is used
but in "3. knitting pattern processing", the "row" number is automatically assigned by computer
(It is easier to understand if you delete one or two lines of row/rnd and then convert them)


bylows
- If the stitch count is not entered, "50" is automatically assigned
- The number of row/rnd can be up to 999, and stitches up to 999, k999 and p999
- The "*" character used for repetition is only supported as a single character (** & *** are not supported)
- Repeating expression is supported by "x and ( )" or "rep and ( )"
Example: (k1,p2) x 2 // rep (k1,p2) 2 times // (k1,p2) rep 2 times
- [ ] and ( ) can be included
e.g. [(k1,p2) 2 times,sl] x 2
- The PDF conversion automatically selects horizontal or vertical by comparing rows and columns
- The function of the PDF conversion has not been perfect one yet...sorry
- The showing rule of the "uncertain words " is really complicated so, please use it as a reference
- Up to 9 markers are supported
- The relationship of marker positions between RS and WS are based on the following equation:
[(RS) marker order] = Gauge + 1 - reversed [(WS) marker order]
(Ex) [ 2 , 5 ] = 10(Gauge) + 1 - [ 9 , 6 ]
- In the cross-knitting (e.g. 6stRC), only one type of knitting pattern is included, omitting variations.
