The knitting has begun! This is attempt number eight or so at a simple wool hat. The previous attempts uncovered a problematic hook that meant undoing and unraveling all of my work and starting over until I discovered the source and fix for the problem. Learning a lot! #knitting #machineknitting
@kyle impressive looking machine :) I can imagine it's easy for a single part of something so complex to occasionally malfunction
@vancha Yes, I'm learning more about the complexity every day, but each bite I take makes the whole thing easier to digest. This machine in particular is complicated because it includes extra features such as a punch card reader to program patterns, and a knitleader which lets you draw your patterns on a large mylar sheet and have it feed along with your work. Plus an extra attachment for ribbing!
All are things I will worry about later. I need to learn how to crawl first.
