Where it came from
Machine-Knitted Fabrics was authored by Janet Nabney and published in 1993 as part of a wave of specialized textile guides intended to bridge the gap between hobbyist craft and professional production techniques. During this period, the rise of affordable home knitting machines allowed domestic crafters to move beyond simple hosiery, and this text was designed to provide technical rigor for those seeking to create sophisticated, garment-quality fabrics.
The book is noted for its focus on structural integrity and design geometry, moving away from decorative patterns toward an understanding of how mechanical stitch manipulation creates specific drape and texture. Janet Nabney’s work was aimed at practitioners looking to master the technical intricacies of machine settings, and it remains a recognized reference for those interested in the transition from mid-century domestic crafting to more structured, modern knitwear design.
