Knitting a blanket in one day was only possible thanks to a knitting machine! Queen Elizabeth would have disapproved, however, as she denied the original inventor of knitting machines a patent. I hope you enjoy this quick video on the brief history of knitting machines and stocking frames!

Engineering knits is a place for people who enjoy all kinds of vintage and antique crafts - from sewing to knitting, crochet to embroidery I like to try it all. I definitely have a preference for historical fibre crafts, and it is my dream to one day make an entire outfit from sheep to sweater. I hope you enjoy watching me and my favorite companion, Nutella, struggle through some fascinating projects!
