Stoll offers useful knitting tools
Knit ABC, Basic Vol. 1 Knit-ABC is a communication tool for all those working with knitted textiles, which Stoll has developed to prevent misunderstanding in situations where different technical terms are used which mean one and the same thing.
Readers can obtain Knit-ABC via the Stoll Fashion & Technology Centers in Reutlingen, Shanghai or New York. Pattern database Readers looking to find a certain pattern or needing suggestions for their next season’s collections can simply sign into www.stollpattern.com where Stoll presents all of its patterns as digital templates. Stoll says its machine customers can also download pattern programs and start knitting immediately. The international Stoll pattern database is updated continuously and allows the user to find patterns utilizing different search criteria such as machine types, gauges, nominal widths, styles and much more. Even if you are not a Stoll customer you can enter your login credentials or sign in with a guest account and choose from 12 (standard search) or even more criteria (advanced search) such as pattern technique, pattern type, gauge, knitting time, machine type and other detailed criteria. You can then browse the search results and select the style of your choice. Users can then view the style in more detail and see back ground information on techniques and yarn. Stoll customers can download pattern pictures, programs, modules and shapes and registered guests get full-view display of all patterns and can download pattern pictures. Pattern library
The Stoll Pattern Library consists of A4 sized knit swatches developed to compliment Stoll’s Trend Collections. Stoll customers can also navigate and research each of the individual archive books via the company’s online pattern database at www.stollpattern.com . The limited edition is available for purchase through Stoll’s Fashion & Technology Centers only. “As the user collects more volumes, Stoll’s Pattern Library becomes a priceless educational as well as inspirational treasure,” the company says.

Knit-ABC helps identify knitting structures by showing the
technical stitch notation alongside the corresponding piece of knitted fabric.
Stitch notation is internationally understood by all knitters and the piece of
fabric helps confirms the look and feel. The most important characteristics of
the corresponding piece of knitted fabric are also briefly described and Stoll
says that Knit ABC is not only useful to buyers, product managers and designers
but it is also an outstanding educational resource for teaching or internal company
training.
“Why not provide your creative and technical team with a
wide variety of inspirational knitting techniques for new product development?
Or alternatively, make Stoll’s Pattern Library part of your knowledge resource
and create your own individual physical pattern archive?” says Stoll.
