£30.00

I’ve written a book!! And here is it.

The first 20 books pre-ordered through my website will receive a little gift with the book as a Thank You for your support. All other books purchased will be signed.

Synopsis:

Machine knitting opens up an unlimited exploration of textures, patterns and materials that are suitable not only for garments, but also for soft furnishings and statement interior pieces.

By exploring combinations of both stitch structures and yarn choices, this book will introduce you to creative techniques, both familiar and new, and encourage you to push the typical parameters of knit. The extensive stitch library explores form building, textures and three-dimensional techniques that will help develop your foundational knowledge of machine knitting.

Appropriate for all machine knitters who have explored the basics, each chapter focuses on the fundamentals of a technique before developing them into more creative compositions. Suitable for knitters with a single- or double-bed domestic machine, or for those with a V-bed, the techniques are described in detail alongside inspirational images and clear charts, making this book the perfect tool for students, designers, researchers and home knitters.

Chapter 1: Partial Knit
