Hi and welcome to my space on the web!  This year I'll be celebrating my 24th year of owning a knitting machine (December 6, 1985) with only about 15 of that actually knowing what I'm doing! In addition to the Passap DM80 with Deco, 4-color changer, 3000A motor, form computer,U80 transfer carriage and Tricofit cast off tool, I also own and knit on a Passap E6000 with 4-color changer and 3000A motor, Knitking Compuknit 5 Star (same as Brother 970) with 850 ribber , Brother 950i with Simet motor, Garter Carriage, SB and DBCC, transfer carriage, PPD, disk drive and DAK with cable,  a Studio 700 with ribber, 4 color changer, and lace carriage and a Studio 155 Bulky and ribber. All of my machines are currently set up. I also have 7 sewing machines which includes 2 antiques, 2 sergers and 2 computerized embroidery machines--Brother ULT 2001 and Snoopy PE200. I only knit and sew for myself. It's a hobby that has gotten way out of hand! I am a self-professed Cut & Sew expert and often demonstrate my particular technique at seminars and workshops.  I have had garments published in Machine Knitters Source, News & Views and Knitwords. I also publish and sell my own patterns. For more about me check out my blog.
