From the Creator of Typeknitting, ‘Knit Hello’ Is a Font and a Knitting Pattern in One

For those interested in crafting intricate knitting designs, having a reliable pattern is essential. But what if you’d like to put your own twist on a design? How about incorporating text into your creations? This thought inspired Zurich-based designer Rüdiger Schlömer to develop a selection of knitting-specific typefaces. His initiative, known as Typeknitting, features a unique font named Knit Hello. This innovative font allows users to type letters in a word processor just like any standard font, simultaneously generating a knitting pattern, making custom designs accessible for beginners and endlessly modifiable.

You can download trial versions of these fonts at the Typeknitting website, or opt to purchase a particular style that aligns with your knitting practices, whether you prefer machine knitting or hand knitting. Additionally, check out two scarf patterns available for full fan designs on the Knit Hello website.
