CRAFT DESIGN ONLINE



We decided to start Craft Design Online when one of our children was given a
"friendship wheel" kit for a Christmas present. We wanted to be able to make
more designs than the ones printed on the wheels with the kit. We experimented
and discovered you could make patterns with more threads using the same wheels,
and eventually discovered that it was a form of Japanese braiding called
Kumihimo.

We realised that this sort of thing could be useful for other creative projects
where it is difficult to directly change an idea for a pattern into an
arrangement to get started on making it. As we think of new craft techniques
(and learn how to do them), we will increase the range of tools available to
free your creativity.

We have a number of kumihimo design tools. Marudai Painter has many types of
braid pattern that can be colored. Kumihimo designer is for making round braids
with 8-32 threads, which are often used for friendship bracelets. Braid 3D
allows you to create and color new braid structures on a simulated marudai, and
see the result in 3D.

There are other craft design tools here too. Pattern Grid gives you an editable
grid, with photo conversion tools which can be used to make cross stitch,
embroidery and similar patterns. And there's a penrose tool for making Penrose
tile layouts.

Do you have a craft that is tricky to design for? Send us your ideas and maybe
we'll do a tool for them.

Happy making
