Japanese Technique and Pattern Machine Knitting Books

All books are unsold stock from a closed machine knitting shop. All of these are in Japanese with extensive charts and photos. For many of the books, there is very little written. It is primarily graphs and photos.

Basic Instructions for Japanese Knitting Books $5

This is a seven page pamphlet in English on how to interpret the charts and Japanese symbols in Japanese knitting patterns. There is some gum residue on cover from a previous price sticker.

Zaza Japanese Knitting Machine Magazines

All magazines are unsold stock from a closed knitting machine shop. Some are in mint condition. Others have minor shelf wear.

I’m adding links to photo pages for each issue. Click on issue number underneath the group photos below.

$14.95 each plus shipping.

These are high gloss magazines with most having over 150 pages. More like a book than a magazine.

All are written in Japanese but have extensive charts, punch card/pattern diagrams, and technical drawings.
