Explore the intersection of knitting and programming in this PyCon US talk by Terri Oda. Discover pyKnit, an open-source toolkit designed to simplify the mathematical challenges of customizing knitting patterns. Learn how this innovative project aims to make pattern adjustments more accessible for knitters of all skill levels, from beginners to experienced designers. Delve into topics such as gauge calculations, shape creation, knitting shorthand, and the potential for interactive patterns. Gain insights into the Turing completeness of knitting and the practical applications of code reuse in pattern design. Understand how pyKnit can facilitate size-inclusive pattern creation and help knitters maximize the use of special yarn. Follow along with the provided slides to visualize concepts and see examples of pyKnit in action.
