Susanne Glass - Machine Knitting


"Outside of a dog a knitting machine is a (wo)man's best friend. Inside a dog it's too dark to knit."

Machine-knitting is my passion! I was a hand-knitter for many years and in December 1995 got my first knitting machine, a Brother punchcard 836. I was hooked! I now have a ribber, intarsia carriage, lace carriage, knit leader, garter carriage, Brother 260 bulky with ribber, and a Brother 910 electronic.  If you have any questions or comments, please contact me at glass@cstone.net.
