K nitting may soon move beyond sweaters and scarves. A team of researchers at Cornell and Carnegie Mellon University has ...

A new prototype of a knitting machine creates solid, knitted shapes, adding stitches in any direction—forward, backward and ...

A research team from Cornell University and Carnegie Mellon University has developed a prototype knitting machine that can build arbitrarily rigid three-dimensional structures by layering stitches ...

If you find 3D printers to be just a little too coldly futuristic, this contraption might be more to your liking. Scientists ...

Yes, you read that right– not benchy, but beanie, as in the hat. A toque, for those of us under the Maple Leaf. It’s not 3D printed, either, except perhaps by the loosest definition of the word: it is ...

We’re all about big machines that build things for us – laser cutters, CNC mills, and 3D printers are the machines de rigueur for Hackaday. Too often we overlook the softer sides of fabrication that ...

For centuries, knitting has been a beloved pastime. Technological advancements, particularly in the form of knitting machines, have significantly simplified the process of crafting complex patterns ...

At last, a use for that industrial knitting machine you bought at a yard sale! Carnegie Mellon researchers have created a method that generates knitting patterns for arbitrary 3D shapes, opening the ...

3D printing is great if you need to create something made of plastic or even metal or ceramic out of thin air. But what if you want something fuzzier and warmer? Something, like say, a hand-knit scarf ...

A new prototype of a knitting machine creates solid, knitted shapes, adding stitches in any direction – forward, backward and diagonal – so users can construct a wide variety of shapes and add ...
