A practical instructional manual that explains the construction of knitted fabric from the loop, introduces basic hand-knit principles, and then systematically describes flat latch-needle machine operation and stitch formation. Chapters cover jersey and rib fabrics, rack and double-lock mechanisms, fashioned and automatic flat machines, widening and narrowing devices, the purl or links stitch, and Jacquard methods for patterned work, including needle selection and design cards. Emphasis is on clear technical explanation and procedures for producing and designing diverse knit fabrics.
