Knyttan

Knyttan are changing fashion design and manufacture. By controlling industrial knitting machines in a new way, the startup can make a different garment every time turning these machines into 3D printers for clothes, but using high quality, natural fibres instead. Launching this winter in Somerset House, Knyttan gives customers the chance to remix the work of prominent artists and designers to create their dream jumper that is then made in front of them. Customers can also see their designs on models before sending to knit with Knyttan’s unique preview technology. No-one else has been able to offer custom production in knitwear due to the high programming cost. Knyttan’s patent-pending technologies remove this cost and makes one-off production possible at a similar cost to local mass production.
