Archive of Thread: Why always transfer handknit patterns into machineknits? Back

The knititknow patterns can be knit with the sticks,  too.

Hei, 
i could not knit for a while,  because i was travelling,  and as we know,  our machines are not as portable as we wish.
I had annyway planned to knit the cloche.

With a gaugeswatch in this chunky yarn i had,  i created the pattern,  took my sticks to travel,  and i had a new and pretty hat.

Made some mitts,  too,  this time my own pattern, taking up the choosen designelements from the cloche. A scarv is on the way,  too. But that will take a little while,  because my machine's waiting for me.


So a big thank you,  Matt and Sue,  for a versatil and pretty pattern. I didn't even need to take the math🤗

And for us silver reed users,  why not combine handknit and machineknit? Ok, it is the trickiest part,  to rethink the shortrows,  written for machineknitting,   but that way i got this section in seedstitch, (and the colour is garter stitch with 2 variegated strands of yarn, ) and i like everything with the hat and its pattern. ðŸ˜?

Tina!

They are beautiful!  I'm so glad you were able to use the pattern.  ðŸ˜„


We always say "any yarn, any machine" but 2 sticks work too!  Patterns are just math!

Thanks for sharing!
