 Repeat for as many patterns as you'd like to create (and for which you have space). Repeat for as many patterns as you'd like to create (and for which you have space).
  
-====== Reloading the machine ====== 
  
-{{:​tutorials:​knittingmachine:​screen_shot_2010-10-26_at_9.56.07_pm.png|}}+====== Inserting the pattern ======
  
-{{:​tutorials:​knittingmachine:​screen_shot_2010-10-26_at_9.55.27_pm.png|}}+Follow the [[backup.html|backup tutorial]] to transfer the knitting machine memory to your computer
  
-{{:​tutorials:​knittingmachine:​screen_shot_2010-10-26_at_9.55.40_pm.png|}}+Now you'll run **insertpattern.py** by typing in **python insertpattern.py img/​file-01.dat PATTERNNUM BMPFILE myfile.dat** which will insert the **BMPFILE** You made in part 1 into the pattern # location **PATTERNNUM** and when done, save the new data file to **myfile.dat** (so you dont overwrite the old file)

 +If the pattern size doesn'​t match the image size it wont continue

 + 
 +====== Split the file ====== 
 + 
 +Now that we have the **myfile.dat**,​ we'll need to split the file into tracks. This lets the emulator load the files back like it was a diskette. We've included a simple program to do this, its called **splitfile2trakc.py** and you can run it by typing in **splitfile2track.py myfile.dat** it will create two files, **track0.dat** and **track1.dat**

 +Rename the files 00.dat and 01.dat respectively 
 + 
 +{{  ​:​tutorials:​knittingmachine:​screen_shot_2010-10-26_at_9.55.40_pm.png ​ |}} 
 + 
 +And drag them into your **img** folder 
 + 
 +{{  :​tutorials:​knittingmachine:​screen_shot_2010-10-26_at_9.56.07_pm.png  ​|}} 
 + 
 +Lastly, we'll reupload the files to the knitting machine, see the next tutorial!
