ABSTRACT:
An object of the invention is to quickly display a simulation image of knitting stitches approximate to an actually knitted fabric. When an image is present in the position of the knitting stitches12, 13corresponding between an upper layer1and a lower layer2, the images of knitting stitches for pattern11or transformed knitting stitches12, 13in the upper layer1having the highest priority are displayed. In each layer, it is possible to perform an editing operation of selecting combinations of knitting stitches previously registered in a form of module from a library and changing the position and the shape of the image of the knitting stitches. The knitting stitches in the periphery of the knitting stitch for a pattern11are substituted for the transformed knitting stitches12, 13reflecting the influence of the making of the knitting stitch for pattern. Image data on basic knitting stitches10, the knitting stitch for a pattern11, and transformed knitting stitches12, 13is created utilizing the images of actual knitted fabrics or computer graphics and is stored. By combining the stored image data, a simulation image of knitting stitches like that of an actually knitted fabric can be quickly displayed.
