As a reaction to typically dead-end debates on future human and robot collaboration that tend
to be either dismissive or overly welcoming towards »cobot« technologies this book provides a
technofeminist intervention. Pat Treusch not only shows how both the fields of technofeminism
and robotics can engage in a practical exchange through knitting but also contributes a
tangible example of coboting dynamics. Robotic Knitting re-negotiates the boundaries between
formalisation and embodiment craft and high-tech as well as useful and dysfunctional machines.
It re-crafts the nature of collaboration between human and robot. This finally entails an
alternative mode of relating - a mode that enables an account of careful coboting.
