Symmetrical or vertical knitting layers in the development of textile manufacturing was prototyped using the loom in Lowell, MA. There was labour movement amongst the girls attending lectures by Emerson/Adams.

In addition to directly creating volumes of knitting, rather than sheets or surfaces, this also reduces constraints on stitch connection, since it can depart from the strict structure of alternating row passes.

The Lowell Offering may be in line with the work presented in this paper.
