Knit sims

Caption

A comparative analysis of stitch patterns, simulated fabric deformations, and corresponding physical samples. The left column shows the programmed knit-purl stitch arrangements, the center column presents computational simulations predicting the fabric’s three-dimensional folding behavior, and the right column displays real-world knitted samples demonstrating the accuracy of these predictions.
