I can't believe how easy this was

This program is very easy to use.I think this only took me half an hour.I did this same pattern in the round but can't find where I put it

Any questions out there?

:thinking: That looks really cool. I may have to get me one.

So do you just enter the weight of the yarn, measurements and style and get a pattern all written out for you like that?

It's great you pick sleeve type,neckline,ribbing,gauge (yours),if you want to knit in round or flat,repeat pattern,close fitting oversize ect,needle size for body & ribbing,body shape (hour glass),yarn weight there's more but you get the idea.Then you can change necklines, sleeves ect if you don't like the way it looks.All with the touch of a key.Ingrid you would love this.I want it mostly to do my gauge and then if I want a different yarn then it calls for it figures it all out for you

Ingrid you can download a demo version. It's limited to one size (30 in chest I think), but you can see what will be available to you.

That does look like a cool pattern!

I downloaded the demo last night and messed around with it a bit. It looks pretty cool. Joann's has it for $89.99 (I think), but with a 50% off coupon that might be doable at some point down the road. (After I get new tires and 4-wheel alignment for my vehicle!).

Since I have yarns that are not standard weights, it will make it easy to make a sweater pattern. I like that Joann's idea, too! Or my birthday isn't too far away. Now, the question is, can I wait?

I have it, but I find I don't use it much. I think I will though in the future...it is almost like "magic" the way it prints everything out so perfectly.

Ohhhh this is sounding better and better! I RARELY get those 50% off coupons from Joanns though. :rollseyes:

I played with the demo yesterday, too....I just might have to have this baby

If you order online, you can google "joann.com coupons" and there are a bunch of sites where you can get coupon codes. The ones that come in the paper are usually 40% off. I usually order online because my nearest joann's doesn't have much for knitting supplies.
