Thanks everyone for your support of our custom knits.  We look forward to 2024 being a great year here at The Knit Tree.   As Sharon Nani, owner, prepares for retirement, she is training her son, Ken to knit the items in the online store, plus the ones that were removed.  Ken is going to take over The Knit Tree and its equipment so we can continue to offer these unique custom knits to our customers. Ken is not new to machine knitting - he earned his high school and college spending money by filling orders back in the 1990's, and has continued to help in maintaining the equipment.  Ken is creative in his own rights with his "Custom Wood and Land Works" business where he falls the timber, prepares the lumber and creates unique wood items and projects: custom storage sheds, fences, decks ect.  So we may add new catagories to this web site when the time arrives.  SO LOOK FORWARD TO ADDING THE CAMO KNITS BACK INTO THE ONLINE STORE THIS YEAR.


In 1994, I wrote a series of 3 articles about how to determine the selling cost of a knit product for Machine Knit America.  Even though that was a long time ago, the process is the same.  The only thing that is different is substituting the correct wages for today when you fill out the worksheets. When someone writes an article for a magazine, you are given guidelines for how long the article can be.  This topic had so much information for it to be valuable to the reader, that it was divided into the following three parts. You can find these articles and the worksheets on The Knit Tree Article page in the Selling and Marketing Knits category.

  • How Accurate is your Pricing? Discusses the Simple Equipment Needed Part 1
  • How Accurate is your Pricing? Discusses the Time/Study Worksheet Part 2
  • How Accourate is your Pricing? Discusses the Selling Cost Worksheet  Part 3
