-  * Remember that stitches in knitting are not square, so you may want to squish your graphic horizontally just a bit before lowering its resolution. 
-  * You're going to then create a blank "​container"​ pattern of the appropriate dimensions using the knitting machine control panel. 
-  * Press INPUT (01_press_INPUT.jpg)
