Often asked about how Intarsia and Handflat knitting machines are powered and how it affects the environment? Well unlike the latest computerised knitting machinery like Shimas or Stoll etc. Apart from a strip light virtually Zero, recorded the first piece of knitting local top end quality velvet hall alpaca yarn to show the stitch close up and the power behind the machine. Yes pure muscle power, videos only 30 seconds but knitters did this for min 8 hour shift and often 12 hour or in my case much longer. Proud of being one of the last of the highly skilled handcrafted knitters of Innerleithen, #InnerleithenTheRealHomeOfBallantyne #tradition #intarsia #scotland #innerleithen #cashmere #makeitbritish #knitting #makeitscottish #makeitbritishlive #ballantynecrazyyank #scottishborders #tweedvalley #hwtextiles #kilt #outlander #outdoorheavyknitwear #ethical #sustainable #velvethallalpacas #eastangliaalpacamill #sustainablefashion #sustainabledesign https://www.instagram.com/p/Bmqj8YfnIs9/?igshid=aj9m9qsexn2
