Summary/Abstract: The article is a consideration of differences between block thinking (blocks, compositions) and line thinking (movement, knots). It is also an attempt to describe the experience of working with a robot as a new project practice in which we ponder: is a robot as a designer's tool closer to the experience of craftsmanship, or to the modern practice of computer-assisted design? It is also a description of our final project "Knotty" involving translating the technique of knitting into the language (movement) of a robot, being the practical answer to the questions and theoretical problems stated above.
