Field notes
The sample Ridge Sweater interface places measurements, construction, stitch pattern, chart, instructions, sizing, and materials alongside one another. The page says a draft can start from a swatch gauge and measurements or a standard size, with edits carrying through to stitch counts. For machine knitters, it lists 24-stitch punch-card templates and row-by-row needle selection for manual machines.
