I'd call that an internet blind spot. I know I have encountered them a number of times in the past myself. If the information is out there (and you would think it is), the search engines aren't providing a good enough way of distinguishing between contexts and eliminating irrelevant ones (such as "history" vs. "directions").

For my own part, I spent the past 40 minutes trying to produce better results. I can't tell if my general ignorance of knitting was an asset or a hinderance, but this was the best I was able to come up with:

I humbly suggest that if you ever find a suitable answer, you put up a web page about it. :-)

I read a scholarly treatise once about knitting and other ways to produce results that resemble knit cloth. I recall that it asserted that knitting was a popular activity for men around the same period as rocking chairs and revolution came to France. I think I found this when looking for information about socks through the years or possibly when researching textiles and archeology as it related to the Venus of Willendorf.
