Hi Taco,
I remember your talk about embroidery patterns with Metapost.
Here someone made a tool to use pixel fonts with a knitting
machine:https://gitlab.com/ameliedumont/residence-green-fabric/-/tree/main/Tricot%20machine%E2%81%84Knitting%20machine
(French)
Thread with images, in English:

An answer was about this project:
https://github.com/marioangst/rayab-web / https://ayab.discourses.ch/
that produces data for AYAB, an open source controller for Brother
knitting machines:
https://www.ayab-knitting.com/
(I always wanted to try Inkstitch, an Inkscap plugin for embroidery, but
none of the maker spaces nearby has such a machine.)
Hans, please don’t write a ConTeXt module for that, I wouldn’t be able
to test it. ;)
