初心者向けに、糸選び、ゲージ、編み図、C2C、あみぐるみなど24の疑問に回答。Purlgrid独自の編み図・編み方生成エンジンの計算と検証も紹介します。

Our engine does the counting. You bring the craft.

Purlgrid develops its own rule-based pattern engine. Depending on the tool, it calculates stitch and row counts, lettering, shaping or bobbin plans, and checks the written result against the intended design. A swatch and your making decisions still matter.

Guides, tools and printable patterns support seven languages. Name tools support uppercase and lowercase Latin and Russian letters, supported accents and digits. Choose a guide for the full details.
