Historically, handframe knitting was always a family affair. At G.H.Hurt & Son, this tradition lives on. Today, modern knitting machinery stands alongside fine examples of handframe knitting machines.

One of the oldest handframes in our possession is thought to have dated back to the 1700’s. It’s difficult to know the exact provenance of the handframes as they have been reconditioned for use over the years in the factory.

These glasses, that have been kept near a hand frame machine, would have belonged to one of our knitters from the past, to help them to look at the fine detail of the shawl they were making.
