Each
color in a
row
requires a separate
pass
of
the carriage.
So,
when
there are three colors per
row,
it
requires three
passes
of
the carriage
to
complete one
row
of
the fabric. And, because
each needle can only knit one
of
the three
colors, the
other
two
colors are slipped and
form
floats on the purl side
of
the fabric.
Because
of
the extra floats, a three color slip
fabric
is
50%
heavier than a
two
color Fair
Isle
and should be knitted
with
a lighter
weight
yarn. In fact, the more colors you
use,
the
lighter
the yarn should be. The
weight
of
the
fabric
is
the main reason
that
five colors per
row
is
generally considered the absolute
maximum.
Without
a PEl, you need
to
draw
each
row
of
your
design three
times-once
for
each color.
The final design
that
you feed
into
the machine
is
a fractured image
of
the original design, often
not
even recognizable. If you collapsed the first
three rows
of
the design
into
a single row, every
square
would
be accounted
for
once and only
once (Figure 20).
However,
when
working
with
a PEl, you simply
prepare three separate mylars
that
the machine
reads and shuffles
to
produce the same kind
of
fractured image.
It
is
faster, easier and much
more accurate (Figure
21
)! The basic design
shows each color designated
by
a filled in
square, a
dot
or
a blank square. The first pattern
mylar accounts
for
all
of
the filled in squares and
the second mylar represents all
of
the
dotted
squares. The
third
mylar
is
totally blank because
whatever wasn't identified
as
color 1
or
color
2,
must be color
3.
Even
though
this
is
a blank
mylar,
it
must be fed
through
the machine.
When designs are more than sixty stitches
wide, you must
work
from
left
to
right, complet-
ing each portion
of
the design. That
is,
read the
first mylar
for
color
A,
the first
for
color B and
then the first
for
color
C.
Next, read the second
mylar
for
each color, then the
third
for
each
color, until the entire design
has
been read. If
you read all the mylars
for
color A and then all
the mylars
for
color
Band
C,
the design will be
incorrect.You must
work
from
left
to
right, com-
pleting all the colors in each section
as
you
go

20: The original
design
is
ex-
panded
by
drawing
each
row
three
times;
once
for
each
color. This
is
easiest
to
do
by
using colored pencils
or
symbols for
each
color.
When
all
of
the
squares
are
filled
in
for
the
mylar,
the
design
bears
little
resemblance
to
the
original. This
merthod
is
used for
both
single
and
double
bed
multi-color
designs. For a
four
color
design, you would have
to
draw
each
row
four times.
