Freelance Knitting Machinist

Main Duties

You Look Hot is a small handmade knitwear brand based in SW London. We specialise in making chic and sustainable knitwear. We are looking for someone to work freelance on their own machine, creating our knitted scarves. We would want the candidate to initially produce a (paid) sample of our scarves to confirm proficiency and quality. Once this is confirmed, we would initially need 10-20 scarves to be produced and will then proceed in batches (20 at a time). Our scarves are essentially just long tubes that are closed at each end (as they were initially produced on a manual circular knitting machine). Experience of and access to chunky silver reed knitting machine and a ribber is essential. OR – access to a machine that is able to recreate this tubular effect.
