What Is Machine Knitting?
Machine knitting is the use of either a manual or electric machine to loop yarn together to make clothing, crafts and knit creations more quickly than if done by hand. A knitting machine can be anything from a handheld spool that creates a simple knit tube of yarn to a large electric machine with hundreds of hooks. Electric machine knitting requires the knitter to program the machine to knit a certain pattern. This is done through a card that’s inserted into the machine or by using a computerized programming system.
