This method can only be done with DesignaKnit 8. You need to have DAK 8 to be able to do the tracing.

Using a test square, you can further process the image so that you can actually knit the garment pieces. If you are a dressmaker and would like to have more complex fitted knitting patterns from your knitting machine, then you will certainly have more creative freedom using Pattern Tracing for DesignaKnit 8.
