Design Transfer

Accurate design transfer is crucial for detailed work:

Method 1: Projector (Most Popular)

• Pros: Accurate, scalable, works in real-time
• Cons: Requires dark room, equipment cost
• Tip: Trace with permanent marker

Method 2: Grid System

• Pros: Very accurate, no special equipment
• Cons: Time-consuming, requires measuring
• Process: Grid both design and fabric, transfer square by square

Method 3: Carbon Transfer

• Pros: Good for smaller designs
• Cons: Limited to fabric size
• Process: Use dressmaker's carbon paper

Important: Mirror Image

Remember to flip your design horizontally - you tuft from the back!

Pro Tips

• Use permanent markers (won't bleed with glue)
• Take progress photos to reference
• Mark color zones clearly
• Consider yarn thickness in design planning
