Sorry Guys... I know nothing about knitting or fashion.
A few years ago I began messing around with microcontrollers.
(mainly Arduino) But it wasn't long until I came across the works of a dutch fashion-tech designer named ANOUK WIPPRECHT.
She uses microcontrollers and many different sensors in her designs to make the clothing responsive to proximity, as well as the mood and focus of the wearer.
Her work and its potential has been something of a fascination to me.
I really like her Spider Dress.
But some of her other works are pretty cool as well.
If your interested here's the Spider Dress...

Again, it's not knitting but I thought you might find it interesting.
