This is the slowest, most awkward, most tiring and least even way of knitting. After inserting the right needle into the stitch, the needle is dropped and forgotten. The yarn is then picked up, wrapped Fig 6 and dropped, leaving the hand free to go back to the needle and draw the loop through. b Take needle with stitches in left hand and empty...

Making Twists KnittingGuide

Thu, 10 Nov 2011 17:39:18 GMT

Twists are diminutive cousins of the cable. A twist consists of 2 stitches 1 stitch crossing over its neighbor. You can twist in either direction left over right or right over left. To make a 2-stitch twist, you can use a cable needle to take 1 stitch to the front or back while you knit the other stitch. But there's another way to accomplish the crossing that doesn't require a cable needle, saves time, and is easier to do. The stubborn stitch on the left edge Often, the left-end knit stitch on...

Electronic needle selection PracticalGuide

Mon, 07 Nov 2011 18:30:48 GMT

Electro-magnetic needle selection is now available on many types of knitting machines this was first commercially used on circular rib jacquard machines Fig. 11.11 . The electronic impulse that energises an electromagnet is usually assisted by the field of a permanent magnet, and the minute selection movement is then magnified by mechanical means. If all the needles, or a block of needles, were to be simultaneously selected, each would require its own actuator. It is much cheaper to select the...

There are scores of ways to add or incorporate different cardigan edgings into a sweater, and this article will narrowly focus on one of those methods knitting a one-piece garter-stitch button band onto the cut edge of a circular stocking-stitch sweater. This final addition is fraught with activity and is a rewarding finale to all the hours spent on the garment itself. Also, by knitting the edge directly onto the sweater, you won't have to guess how long to make the strip and can dispense with...
