Busy Bee Basics Machine Knitting Designs

Garter Carriage Classics Vol 3

Lady's longer length sweater with crew neckband and square armholes (see below).

This is a 24 stitch punchcard design suitable for 24 stitch punchcard machines or electronic machines with garter carriage.

The yarn used is Spectrum Tango 4 ply. This yarn is 80% Acrylic and 20% wool, good quality yarns with a similar mix should substitute well (e.g. Forsell Shamal) provided that tension is checked first.

Designed for ladies' sizes 30"-44" (76-112cm), this garment can be made from one 500g cone of the recommended yarn.

A Gansey-effect sweater with a neat, round neckline, square armholes (keeps the shoulder line closer to the natural shoulder line whilst being quick to knit on the garter carriage) and side splits and a flat border to create a garment that hangs perfectly straight.

This is a 24 stitch punchcard design suitable for 24 stitch punchcard machines or electronic machines with garter carriage.

This garment requires one 500g cone of Spectrum Tango 4 ply, 80% Acrylic and 20% wool, or a good quality substitute - see above for details.

Designed for ladies' sizes 30"-44" (76-112cm), this garment can be made from one 500g cone of the recommended yarn.

A high, folded neckband and classic cuffs and welts makes this 4 ply Acrylic sweater really warm to wear. The striking 24 stitch garter carriage design has a "tree" design which suits its seasonal character well. The square armholes keep the shoulder seam nearer its natural position whilst keeping the garment shape easy to knit.

This is a 24 stitch punchcard design suitable for 24 stitch punchcard machines or electronic machines with garter carriage.

This garment requires one 500g cone of Spectrum Linaria 100% 4 ply or a good quality substitute, provided that tension is checked first.

Designed for ladies' sizes 34"-44" (87-112cm), sizes up to 38" can be made from one 500g cone of the recommended yarn, but the larger sizes will require extra yarn.

 

Knitted in 4 ply 100% crepe yarn, which imparts a nice sheen to the garment, this is a classic sweater with V neck leading into a placket with three buttons. The square armholes keep the shoulder seam nearer its natural position whilst keeping the garment shape easy to knit.

Finally a quick and easy, but very stylish, cap sleeved top, suitable for day or evening wear.

Yeoman Aurora Woolway yarn, a mix of 30% wool, 20% nylon and 50% Acrylic, is used to create a fabric which shows up the garter carriage texture well whilst also being soft and fluid, and draping well.
