The Machine Knitter's Reference by Beleke den Hartog and Elsbeth van Heyningen is a comprehensive guide for machine knitters, offering in-depth insights into knitting construction.

The book features playful sketches of the authors and includes ingenious alternative solutions across its four chapters, each with different yarn colours and specific languages. Designed with a focus on knitting technology rather than arithmetic principles or software solutions, the book serves as a blueprint for innovative knit design. It emphasizes that achieving results in machine knitting involves personal choices and creative exploration, reflecting the authors’ passion and deep knowledge of the craft.
