A new book has been published by Verena Kuni with title “Häkeln + Stricken für Geeks” (“Crochet + knitting for Geeks”) with some mentions to Knitic with text and photos. The link to the book is here: http://www.oreilly.de/catalog/haekelnkgger/

NeuroKnitting - let me knit with your brain!
New project realized in the collaboration with Sebastian Mealla.
Neuro Knitting represents a novel way of personal, generative design and fabrication. An approach that brings together affective computing and digital crafts. And thus, it offers new applications and creative thinking to both areas.

Knitic workshop @Constant
last weekend we made Knitic workshop in Pianofabrique in Brussels. Many thanx for Wendy from Constant for organizing the event!
Soldering PCBs for Knitic, opening up knitting machines and trying to make everything work
Producing PCBs for Knitic @ Fablab Barcelona
super grateful to Fablab Barcelona that let us to produce some PCBs for Knitic with their milling machine. Also kindly guided through the process. Muchas gracias!
and after quick soldering we got this:
This time we made 1layer PCBs because of short time for production. But would like to try out double side circuit milling in the future. This will be quite precise work.
Some tips that we learned:
1. use KB type boards for a milling machine. Those are much softer than fiber ones and doesn’t break drills so easily. However the drawback is fragile connection pins, especially these ones that goes to Arduino.
2. mirror circuit if soldered on the back of PCB
Knitic got its banner/scarf
Knitic in Toulouse soon!
Will be giving a talk about Knitic and all related at Toulouse Hacker Space Factory Conference on the 26th May.
