Knitting Machine Stitch StylesUnderstanding what stitches are possible on the knitting machine is essential. Some stitches are automatic, depending on models, and some involve a bit more hand work.

Knit - Purl CombinationsDesigns such as garter, seed, moss, double seed, broken rib, basketweave plus more are possible via hand manipulation on all models.

RibbingsRibbings such as knit one purl one, knit two purl two and more are automatic with the matching ribber accessory, if available. Some models of machines will also do slip-stitch ribbing, fisherman’s rib, brioche ribbing, rickrack ribbing and more automatically. Without a ribber, ribbings are possible via hand manipula-tion. Lace or Cables combined with ribbing are possible via hand manipulation of the lace and cable stitches.

Color Change PatternsChanging colors is automatic on electronic (with software purchase) and punch card models using the fairisle technique, brioche (tuck) or the slip stitch technique. On other machines, color changing patterns are semi-automatic by manual selection. Color change patterns in combination with the ribber (rib-bing) accessory is automatic using the slip stitch technique on the electronic (with software purchase) and punch card models.

Texture PatternsSlip Stitch: Slip stitch textures (single color or multi-colors) are automatic on electronic (with software purchase) and punch card models. On other machines, this technique is semi-automatic via manual needle selection. Yarn defaults to being slipped with the yarn in back (purl side). With hand manipula-tion yarn can be changed to being slipped on the front side (knit side). Brioche (Tuck): Brioche in hand knitting is a combination of slipping, yarn-overs, and knitting them together on following rows. In machine knitting it is called Tuck Stitch. These textures (single color or multi-color) are automatic on electronic (with software purchase) and punch card models. On other ma-chines, this technique is semi-automatic via manual needle selection.Twisted or Cable: Hand manipulated on all models. Eyelet or Lace: These textures are automatic on electronic (with software purchase) and punch card models that offer the optional lace carriage acces-sory. On other machines, this technique is possible via hand manipulation.

Textures Specific to Knitting Machines:Plating or plating in color is where two yarns are used. One yarn is always laid on the knit side of the fabric, while the remaining yarn is kept to the purl side of the fabric. Weaving is with two yarns. A finer one is the basis, while the heavier or nov-elty yarn is caught by the finer yarn to produce a thick, knit-woven fabric.Punch lace is a lace-like fabric. 2 yarns, one very very thin. In pattern some needles knit both yarns, and some stitches knit with only the finer yarn. Stitches knit with only the finer yarn appear open and lace-like.
