Busy Bee Basics Machine Knitting Designs

Book 79   £4.50     Garter Carriage 

Book 79 Criccieth Castle

Criccieth Castle

Designs Adapted for Tamm Yarns

Garter carriage designs using Tamm Yarns from Prairie Knits in Canada

Double Kint approx Sweater from Book 79

Knitted in the popular Tamm Cancun, this longline sweater has a 24 stitch design which is strongly textured; the polyamide (nylon) content of this yarn is perfect for highlighting the texture. 

Available in sizes 34"-48"

Tamm Cancun is available from Canada (see above), but most double knit Acrylic yarns in the UK will substitute reasonably well.

Tamm Rayito is another yarn which holds garter carriage patterns well, and here it is used to create a longline tunic which hangs straight and drapes well. 

This design has a narrow neckband and specially designed borders that match the main pattern. Available in sizes 32"-50".

Tamm Rayito is available from Canada (see above), but most double knit Acrylic yarns in the UK will substitute reasonably well.

Double Knit approx Sweater from Book 79

4 Ply Sweater approx from Book 79

A classic, round neck cardigan in Tamm Spirit. When used with the garter carriage and a suitable stitch design, this yarn produces a smooth but firm textured fabric - see the next picture of the matching top.

Tamm Spirit is available from Canada (see above), but is similar to a 4 ply Acrylic yarn

Sizes 34"-48"

Again in Tamm Spirit, the matching sleeveless top has a one-piece V neckline which is carefully shaped to produce a neat curve without a centre seam.

The sleeveless top pattern is also written for sizes 34"-48"

Detail of Neckline from Book 79

Sleeveless Top 4 Ply approx from Book 79
Disk GD9 contains all the patterns in this book and is available for either Brother disk drive or DesignaKnit
