- Pair of XX Century Maples In Hungarian KnittingLocated in Lisboa, PTHungarian knitting, also known as "Nagyvarad knitting" or "Eastern Continental knitting," is a traditional style of knitting that originated in Hungary. It is characterized by its unique technique of holding the yarn and needles. In Hungarian knitting, the yarn is held in the right hand (for English-style knitting) or left hand (for Continental-style knitting) differently from the standard method. The yarn is looped around the thumb and held in place with the palm of the hand, allowing for a smooth and efficient movement of the yarn while knitting. One of the distinctive features of Hungarian knitting is the use of a knitting belt or knitting sheath. This device is worn around the waist and holds one of the knitting needles, allowing the knitter to work with just one hand, while the other hand holds the yarn and manipulates the stitches. Hungarian knitting produces a tight and even tension, making it suitable for intricate colorwork, cables, and textured stitches. It has been traditionally used for knitting items such as socks, mittens, and sweaters, often adorned with intricate patterns and motifs. While Hungarian knitting has its roots in traditional Hungarian textile...Category
