Translating Between Hand and Machine Knitting

by Vikki Haffenden

Overview

Knitting is an enduringly popular and creative craft, but many associate the techniques primarily with hand knitting, believing machine knitting to require arcane knowledge. However, machine knitting is formed from the same stitch structures and is equally versatile. Translating Between Hand and Machine Knitting rediscovers the potential of domestic machine knitting to open up new possibilities for dedicated knitters, offering an equally creative yet time-saving method of crafting new designs. With more than 500 images, this comprehensive guide offers detailed step-by-step explanations of techniques in hand and machine knitting, while also offering inspiration and design advice.
