This book was released on 2025-01-14 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A reference work for machine knitters, this easy-to-follow, visually rich guide to innovative knit design transmits the authors' distinct love for and expertise in the craft of machine knitting and their profound knowledge of knitting techniques. This reference work for machine knitters by the late Beleke den Hartog, co-founder of The Dutch School of Machine Knitting, Studio den Hartog in the Hague, and Elsbeth van Heyningen, who co-headed with Beleke the Department of Fashion and Textile at The Royal Academy of Art in The Hague, leads knitters to an in-depth understanding of knitting construction. A handbook for the upcoming generation of knitting designers, Machine Knitter's Reference is a tutorial and visual book of few words, but rich in illustrations, graphics, and photos, that can be understood by everyone. This easy-to-follow guide to innovative knit design picks up where, once the basics of machine knitting are mastered, follow up questions arise such as: shaping 2- or 3-dimensional forms, shaping the outside, creating volume from the inside, and giving structure to a knit. It explores methods of shaping where stitches remain on the needle or are transferred to adjacent needles, as well as variations in edging the knitting, always considering what the finished product needs to convey. Moreover, the book uses different methods of calculating and designing, including graphs, formulas, and technical drawings, all enhanced by fun sketches depicting the authors in lively discussion creating the book. The calculations in the book are not according to arithmetic principles or software solutions, but are based on the use of a knitting machine and knitting technology. Ingenious alternative solutions are included in all four chapters, each of which uses a different yarn colour and a specific language. Thorough yet playful, this book transmits the authors' distinct love for the craft of machine knitting and their profound knowledge of all knitting techniques. Offering insight for digital application, the book is a preliminary sketch (a blueprint) with many opportunities to elaborate on it. There is no single way to achieve the resu

Download or read book Hand Knits by Machine written by Susan Guagliumi and published by . This book was released on 2014-11-24 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hand Knits by Machine is the one book that fully addresses the issues involved in adapting hand knit patterns and techniques to a knitting machine. Heavily illustrated with photographs and illustrations, the book puts as much emphasis on "why" as it does "how" and will guide both hand and machine knitters through the process.Part One contains individual chapters (Casting On, Increasing and Decreasing, Binding Off, Picking Up Stitches) that specifically focus on duplicating the hand knit methods on the machine - not the usual methods found in knitting machine manuals. There is an extensive chapter on machines, basic stitches and a chapter that illustrates, among other topics, beading techniques and garter bar usage. Part Two dedicates entire chapters to converting Mosaic stitches and lace designs to the machine; by hand selection or with punch cards and electronics. The Entrelac chapter features a unique method based on holding position, requiring no scrapping off. The chapter on Modular knitting covers basic "Domino" squares as well as some unique methods of joining diamond shapes.This is what some of the best hand knit designers and authors have to say about Hand Knits by Machine:"...A masterful, comprehensive, inspiring book. I love everything about it- the concepts, the illustrations, the organization." Sally Melville, author of The Knitting Experience"..this book a must for hand-knitters wanting to make the leap to the machine, as well as for machine knitters who want to add some great hand-knitting skills to their bag of tricks! Lace, entrelac and mosaic patterning are fascinating when done on the machine, and Susan gives the technical back-up to ensure success." Deborah Newton, author of Designing Knitwear."A great resource! This volume brings the sensibilities and handcrafted details loved by hand knitters to machine knitting."Norah Gaughan, author of Knitting Nature"In Hand Knits by Machine, Susan Guagliumi guides the hand knitter through her many tips and tricks to make a machine knit sweater look completely handmade. Clear concise directions, explicit photographs and Susan's incredible expertise will turn you into a machine knitter in no time. Bobbles, lace, cables, mosaic and color-work patterns, entrelac and more are all hand knitting techniques that Susan gives instruction for working."Kristin Nicholas, author of Knitting Today's Classics"The process of taking a hand-knit garment and recreating it with a knitting machine can be daunting at first, but with a little guidance, it can be very exciting! Hand Knits by Machine deconstructs each of the steps involved with clear and concise detail, making them understandable and achievable. As well, there are thorough explanations and instructions for techniques hand-knitters love, such as entrelac, mosaic knitting, and modular knitting, demystifying them so they can easily be accomplished with a knitting machine. This book is an excellent resource that will be referred to again and again. "Trisha Malcolm, editor Vogue Knitting Magazine
