With k.innovation CREATE, a new design software from STOLL and KM.ON, the flat knitting industry is getting a powerful tool that combines knitwear design with 3D product development and knit production. The functions offered include shape creation and grading, digital stitch and yarn development and data export for the simulation in any 3D software.

Digital knitwear design with just a few clicks – learning how it's done

STOLL explains how these can be used efficiently in practice-oriented training courses. The courses for 2021 last two days, are conducted online and are held in English. Target groups are mainly knitwear designers, but also pattern makers, knitwear producers and 3D artists. Prior knowledge of flatbed knitting structures, stitch formation principles, yarns and 3D product development is a plus.
