It is really a shame that knitting machines more or less stopped being produced in the late 90ies.

There is https://www.kniterate.com/ but it is 16k$. You must be really into knitting to pay that price /s

Most machines you find online are decades old or simplistic products that are more or less only useful for scarfs and socks.

I wish the kniterate founders had succeeded in what I understand was their original vision in creating open hardware for hobbyists.
