Conceptual Considerations

Consider and plan the use of yarn length control even before creating the pattern.
Some points about the right operating mode:

Working with mm

The right operating mode in most of cases
With common characteristics of a collection, a group of patterns or of an order
as:

Yarns
Knitting Modes
Gauges
Machine types

With sets of sizes and same articles in different colors
With a low quantity of pieces of the individual fabric pieces
Working with mm (millimeters)

Working with original fabric

For special cases

Narrow fabric pieces
Complex structures in the fabric piece
Example: Aran with cable
Special request concerning the stitch appearance in individual areas
Separate fabric piece of high quantity

Creating the Knitting Program

Then note the following points when creating all knitting programs according to your decisions.
Here as example Working with mm:

With yarn length control right from the start
With the right operating mode Working with mm
With stitch lengths in millimeters
With unique combinations of NP indices for the front and rear needle bed in the characteristic areas

Yarn in common
Knitting mode in common
Unique combination of NP indices (NP5 + NP6)

All knitting programs

of one article
of one order
of one set of sizes
of one collection

Standardized assignment of yarns to yarn carriers and measuring wheels
Import the determined basic conditions to all M1plus patterns in order to get them contained in the relevant knitting programs.

Knit the fabric piece as sample and determine the basic conditions

The determination of the basic conditions is required for importing this data into all the M1plus patterns.
