This website was originally inspired by a post by dancingbarefoot and incorporated into a website started by steelbreeze. We wanted to provide a central resource for machine-knitting patterns and techniques. If it's domestic flat bed or CSM-related and linkable online, it'll probably be here. After all, why should hand-knitters and crocheters get all the fun?!
New to machine knitting? Gained a knitting machine but no idea what you've got? Check out the training, manuals, machine information and maintenance pages.
