Sock Pattern Architect

Knit socks to your measurements Whether you’re knitting for yourself, family or friends, Sockenrechner creates personalised knitting instructions based on your measurements and your own stitch and row gauge. Plan your next pair to suit the wearer’s feet and your chosen stitch pattern. From gauge swatch to finished toe Enter your stitch and row gauge along with the leg and foot measurements. Choose your stitch pattern, cuff style, heel and toe. The app calculates the stitch and row counts and guides you through each part of your sock: cuff, leg, heel, foot and toe. Not sure which heel or toe to choose? Sockenrechner suggests suitable styles based on your measurements and the selected foot shape. Accept a recommendation or choose another style yourself. As much detail as you need Choose the level of detail that suits your knitting experience: • Detailed: Full explanations of the individual steps. • Normal: Concise instructions with the essential information. • Brief: Abbreviated instructions for experienced knitters. Keep measurements ready for the next pair Create profiles for the people you knit for and reuse their measurements for a new calculation. Simply enter the gauge for your new project. You can edit saved measurements at any time. Find your favourite instructions again Save completed knitting instructions in your archive under a name of your choice.
