Quiet public

I’m at a knitting conference, and Scott and I decided to use this as a forcing deadline to publish an alpha version of the printable modular flat-bed knitting machine that he has been working on. I made a lil zine about it too.

A small flat knitting machine printed in white and yellow plastic.

The front cover of a folded-paper zine. It says “An Inexpensive Modular Knitting Machine”
