PatternElf is a new footwear plugin for Rhino 5 developed by DES. PatternElf has two design procedures, 3D/2D and 2D Only.

- Drawing curves on 3D lasts, 2D halves, or simultaneously.
- Pattern design by Pattern Engineer (same with 2D Only design procedure).
2-D Only
- Designs 2D sketch on halves.
- Creates 2D patterns from 2D sketches.
- Pattern design by Pattern Engineer
- Object-oriented pattern design (Allowance, Stencil, Notches...)
- Object-oriented pattern morph (Spring, Match, Straighten, Crease...)
- Process (History) editor.
