Stitch counts and floats
What the status bar at the bottom checks.
- Each row must work exactly the stitches the row below left. Decreases use 2 or 3 stitches; yarn overs and make-1s use none. Rows that don’t add up are flagged in red.
- Cables need all their squares, and are usually crossed on right-side rows.
- In stranded colourwork, floats longer than Longest float (settings) are flagged, with their length in cm.
- A cable cut by the edge of a panel is flagged.
