Knyttan turns industrial knitting machines into something approaching 3D printers, using "revisualisation technology" to simplify programming and enable designers to produce knitwear on demand. The platform lets customers co-create and significantly tweak designs, enabling customized scarves and jumpers with zero inventory because stock is held digitally. By removing the need for expert machine programmers, Knyttan aims to shorten production lead times from days or weeks to hours and accelerate go-to-market speed. The approach supports a zero-stock, on-demand production and distribution model where items are only made after a customer has paid. Knyttan is a Techstars London graduate and raised seed funding to help disrupt garment production and scale its offering. The company emphasizes reducing the complexity of knitwear manufacturing and enabling more designs that have never been made before.
