These are some photos of the pieces I’ve knitted utilizing img2track, the program that allows a Brother KH-930/940/950i/965i/970 to talk directly to a computer. It creates a pattern from a graphic image file that loads directly into the machine for knitting.

If this intrigues you and you’re interested in more info, take a look at DaviWorks - img2track knitting machine software. Also check out the group here on Ravelry, Img2track For Machine Knitters.

I was particularly pleased that the QR code scans correctly! Sector67 is the hackerspace in Madison where I’ve been working on this project.

Random Pattern The results of utilizing an online pattern generator The pattern repeats, but is a “morphing” pattern, so that you can see it changes subtly as it progresses.

Boston Terrier Not Bob, but my sister’s Boston. This particular item was created by simply uploading a photo into img2track and knitting the result.

Wisconsin Capital Dome This is taken from a photo in front of our State Capitol. The image was manually adjusted and manipulated, but again, was loaded into the machine with img2track.

Grassroutes Caravan Logo I was commissioned by a local bicycle activism group (Grassroutes Caravan) to knit some logos. I tried several iterations. These images were all manipulated by me prior to using img2track to load to the machine.

The peacock sculpture was created by Tim Sprengelmeyer, another member of Sector67, the hackerspace where I’ve been working on this project. The first photo shows the actual photo of the sculpture, followed by the knitted version of the image.
