Nordic sweater · step by step
See your sweater before you knit a single stitch
Pick a size and gauge, draw your yoke cell by cell — and watch the finished Lopapeysa sweater come alive.
How it works
From a single cell to a finished sweater
Three steps and you'll have a knit-ready yoke chart, with a live preview right beside it.
01
Pick a size and direction
Bust size in cm or inches, ease, gauge, top-down or bottom-up — the yoke construction is calculated for you.
02
Draw your yoke
Cell by cell with pencil, fill, lines and shapes, and copy-paste for repeats. Up to 10 colors in your palette, or pull them straight from a photo.
03
Check it and export
See exactly how the pattern wraps around the sweater as you go. Download the chart as a PDF, or a picture of the sweater.
What the editor can do
Tools built for precise colorwork
Everything you need for a jacquard yoke — nothing you don't.
Live preview
The sweater updates as you draw — no "Generate" button to click.
Palette from a photo
Upload a photo of your yarn and the editor picks out the exact colors for your palette. Perfect if you've already bought the yarn.
Export as PNG or PDF
Save the chart as a PDF with your stitch counts and a color legend, or a picture of the finished sweater as a PNG.
We'll count the stitches for you
Enter your bust size and gauge — the app works out how many stitches to cast on and how many to increase or decrease, and counts the ones you've placed on the chart.
