RGB version?
I was wondering if it's possible to make a RGB version of this algorithm using 3 threads instead of one. It would be amazing if this is possible. Have you thought about it?
I see how that would be possible. If you don’t see an update in a week, ping me.

Is it possible to make not just Red Green Blue version, but colorful (depends how many colors picture require or you set for example 3-5 colors in settings)? In order to receive something like this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7bALdSkPow https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i8N4TmOMTLA https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r3_dS1gvYLU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iv_x1uJDvO8
I can see how it would be done. I'm crazy busy until tuesday but after that I can actually write code. Before then, let's work out a few details. How would you decide what colors to start with, and when to stop using each color?

maybe before scan an image you can choose (or change in code) something like modes: fast(3 colors), medium(4 colors), exact(5 colors) or just simply set number of colors in code "colors: 3" or "colors: 5", etc. And when program scans the image it chooses main 3-4-5 colors(depending to what number you set in code) of the image you need in order to replicate the picture in choosen quality.
sure. I could build a histogram to find the most obvious colors, and then just tell the user "get these N colors". What about when to stop using a color?

hm.. not sure about this) maybe you already have something in mind?
So I put in some work in this. I saw Instagram user @art.nitka has figured it out. She’s not sharing her technique. I tried to write a version that used black string AND white string, but it didn’t work well. She’s got a tricky method for switching colours. The order of strings means that some strings cover others in a way that improves the results. I don’t get how they calculate it, except by brute force trying everything. My method was trying to look at the amount of a color left in the original image + the amount of error in the finished weave. Results looked bad.

I just counted one of her pieces. She has 188 nails around the edge. I usually math with way more! Hmm... doesn’t solve anything, it’s just an interesting data point.

I found some other code on github but can't get it work/install the script as I am not familiar with programming, but maybe this code will help you to figure out how is it possible to make it in your script? https://github.com/MaloDrougard/knit https://github.com/MaloDrougard/knit/wiki/Installation-of-openframework-qtcreator-knitApp
Huh. Exactly the same as my algorithm but all three colours run in parallel.

Nice work. I have found that she uses max 8000 lines. Here is a result on 8000 lines by your algorithm (she used black, white, yellow, green and red).
One thing is maybe that she uses grey/coffee color canvas so it helps and add one more color close to skin color but I am not sure it helps at all.
another thing I guess thier algorithm may work like layer after layer. For example you knit some lines in black color then some pack of lines by red, then pack/layer with yellow, then again layer of black, etc
but not like different color lines everytime line by line because in this case whole picture will take a lot of time, not just a few of days.

It may also help to stop (click) the simulation earlier. I find I only get maybe 25-50% done before I feel it is at its best.

seems you have updated black/white algorithm to colors too?
Here is (3rd from the left) a version by that algorithm (maybe even better?)

I like your program very much Let's say I set 30,000 lines and I only execute 2,000 lines and I'm done weaving_algorithm_circle
click to start. click to stop.
I suspect there's a way to do even better. say you get some lines and it's pretty good... but obviously it would be better if some lines were in a different order (on top of each other). So I wonder if it's worth sorting the list of approved lines so different lines are on top and then checking if it is closer to the original image.

the mona lisa picture gives me a lot of trouble. I can only assume they made it work by choosing a very dark canvas to start. canvas color and thread color makes a HUGE difference.

Will the program continue to adjust? Look forward to.
Hi,
I have made one of these (one string color) for my daughter. I used 256 nails, 4000 lines and 3046 meters of thread and it took me 53 hours to finish it..
I am very much interested to make one in color but definitely not in 30000 lines.

Can I share this on my blog, please?

So about the RGB thing... I spent a long time trying to get satisfying results. Even in two colors with white and black thread I have not succeeded. There must be a way to order the sequence of threads so that black and white mix in the right way to get the closest result. HOWEVER sometimes it may be better to let the wrong color through in a few places if the overall effect is improved. I can't imagine how to write a sorting metric that measures this in a reasonable amount of time.
