I love hand knitting but can get a bit bored that it takes so long!

I have always loved making clothes and home stuff so want to look into making things on a bigger scale so thought 'knitting machine'!!

I know they are expensive but does anyone have any advice, experience with them?

Thanks

I don't know anything about knitting machines BUT dependent on where in the country any of you live, I know of a knitting machine, with manual and training video going in the charity shop where I work.
At £25 it is a total bargain.

The shop is in Northampton and the machine, naturally would have to be collected.

Also you would have to be a bit quick since it is likely to be snapped up before long.

Hi, thanks for the replies. I'm in the west of the uk and can't seem to find any local stockists. I expect I'm going to have to take a trip to John Lewis to pick someones brain.

Will report back when I've found anything useful out.

Duch, shame I can't get to northampton or I would buy it, I take it you don't do online sales!!

It would need a courier to transport it, but I don't think it would be impossible.
