Zen Knitting

this is the coolest invention i have ever seen. and 1924. that’s unbelievable.

That was really cool. Would have been nice to see it finished tho.

Yes, what you can’t see is the 6-7 lbs. of weights pulling down while it is knitting. The yarn also blooms in the wash.

how much are these machines? and where do you find them? never saw one b4 i saw this vid. it’s kind of weird!

u can’t read… do u???

Neat machine! Would love to have seen the finished sock, though. :/

it knits SO quickly
OMG

I was having trouble sleeping this morning and the sound of this machine is super relaxing to me.

This makes me so happy. lol. I’d really like to have one, but I saw some on eBay and they were $900. D:
I’ll stick to my double points I suppose. x)

Nifty, but after all that, I would have really liked to see the finished product.

wheres the sock??

they could make that machine much more efficient if they put a bigger gear on the crank and a smaller gear on the crankshaft

That was so interesting.Thanks for posting it. I had heard of these machines before and wondered how they worked. I would love to try one. How did you find out how to operate it and do you need a pattern book? Did you find an instruction book somewhere?
