What is the knitting machine? It is a small machine in the shape of a hollow cylinder with four hooks on top that allows you to knit in the round to make wool tubes. There are manual knitting machines and mechanical knitting machines. Ultra simple, turn the crank and in a few minutes a cord with pretty knitted stitches will appear. Ultra-easy to handle, it's a perfect manual activity to do with the family, as it appeals to young and old alike!
You don't know knitting at all? Don't panic! Discover in this video tutorial how to use a circular knitting machine.
Which wool to use for the machine knitting? We advise you to use firmly twisted wool that can be knitted with 3.5 or 4 mm needles or hooks. Coton Natura or Basic acrylic wool is perfectly suited for this technique.
But what can you do with an automatic knitting machine? Even though the knitting machine always keeps the tube shape, you can customize the shapes by using a soft wire! Whether it's for home decor, fashion or jewelry, knitting is a great way to use your scraps of wool to make pretty creations. Here are some easy DIY creative ideas:
1. a woolen word or name with knitting for a child's room.
2. a wall decoration in knitting such as a cloud.
3. customize a t-shirt or a wicker basket.
4. Make a fancy bracelet with knitting.
5. Turn a walking lamp into knitting.
The possibilities are endless! All you have to do is buy your knitting fabric to make amazing DIY creations!
