A different way to knit

Yes, you can knit by machine.

A knitting machine lets you create knitted fabric quickly and beautifully, right at home. Choose your yarn, experiment with color and texture, shape sweaters to fit, and spend more time creating.

01

Create more

A knitting machine can produce rows of stitches in seconds, leaving more time to experiment, design, and finish the things you want to make.

02

Make it fit

Making your own knitwear gives you the opportunity to create sweaters around your measurements and preferences instead of being limited to standard sizes.

03

Make it yours

You choose the yarn, color, texture, shape, and details. The machine is simply another creative tool in your hands.

A bridge from sewing to knitting

Knit the garment or knit the fabric.

Machine knitting gives you choices. Shape sweater pieces directly on the knitting machine, or create your own custom knit yardage and use cut-and-sew techniques to construct the garment.

Choose the yarn, color, texture, and pattern. You create the fabric, then decide how you want to use it.

Rediscover what's possible

Is there a knitting machine hiding in your closet?

Maybe you inherited one. Maybe you bought one years ago. Maybe you've always wanted to learn but never knew where to begin.

It may be time to take another look.

Maybe you inherited a machine. Maybe you bought one years ago. Maybe you got frustrated and put it away.

Machine knitting has changed. You don't have to figure everything out on your own.

  • Learn visually. Step-by-step video instruction can make unfamiliar techniques easier to understand.
  • Skip the math. Machine knitting often means adapting patterns or calculating instructions yourself. Knit It Now's custom Pattern Builders do the calculations for you, using your measurements, yarn, and gauge.
  • Learn as you knit. You don't have to master everything before you begin. Learn the techniques you need for the project you want to make.
