[Nfb-krafters-korner] knitting machines

[dianefilipe at peoplepc.com]

Howdy!
I always thought I wanted a knitting machine,but then when I finally got one
 I didn't like it at all.  It didn't feel like I was really doing the
knitting.  It is much different than hand knitting.  I ended up selling it. 
It was very confusing how to set it up, thread the yarn, etc.  I never
finished a complete project.

Hello everyone, I am the new kid on the block, Becky from Washington State.
I am married with two wonderful golden retrievers. My husband is presently
going to add to our pup family with a labby dabby dore.  Baxter is my
retired guide dog and Jake is my working guide dog.  Anyone want to spin
golden fur, giggle.
 
When I was twelve years old my mom introduced me to crocheting and knitting.
So for thirty plus years I have enjoyed making all sorts of wonderful things
to wear and share.  I have had a few commission pieces as well. In junior
high and high school I wore my own creation sweaters to school.  But really
afghans and simple things go fast and make great gifts.
 
As the subject line suggests, I am interested in knitting machines. Are
there any machine knitters on list?  How did you get started?  Which
machines are better to start on? Are there brands of machines better then
others?
 
I can be reached at:
b.butterfly at comcast.net
 
many thanks for letting me join the group.  If I can help, let me know.  Oh,
Smile, I am normally not a lerker on lists.  But I am not going to jump into
a subject I know little about.
 
Becky and Jake
