XML-based Approach for Digital Representation of Knitting Patterns
XML-based Approach for Digital Representation of Knitting Patterns

Summary/Abstract: This paper views the problems related to the development of knitting software for hand-made knitting. It presents an XML approach for digital representation of knitting patterns. Its purpose is to develop a uniform and platform independent description of simple graphics primitives corresponding to different types of stitches. The XML language can be built on CAD systems for handmade knitting. The users of these software applications could be: people, who are interested in knitting as a hobby; editors of knitting hobby magazines; ethnographers, who invest in the area of old traditional costumes and hand-made knitting.
