Claim 0:
1. Computer-implemented method for producing a custom-tailored, skin-tight, knitted garment (31) for a limb (3) of a person, comprising the steps of:
receiving a three-dimensional dataset (11) of the limb (3) acquired using a 3D scan device (21),
receiving a height value describing the dimension of a knitting row (9) in the lengthwise direction of the limb (3) and a total length value for at least one lengthwise section (4) of the garment (31) and determining a number of knitting rows (9) for the at least one section (4) of the garment (31) by dividing the total length value by the height value,
evaluating the three-dimensional dataset (11) to derive a circumference information describing the circumference of the limb (3) along at least the length of the limb (3) covered by the at least one section (4),
from the circumference information, determining a circumference value for each n-th knitting row (9) or each knitting row (9) except every n-th knitting row (9), wherein n is a natural number, in the at least one section (4),
wherein the circumference values are used for determining production values for the knitted garment (31).
