Default Knitting Machines?

I have no experience or knowledge of knitting machines and I want to do some
research.... all searches I try on the internet turn up nothing. Could
someone point me in the right direction for a $300-$400 machine?

Thanks!
Denise

That cheap would be a Bond... they run about 159 to 179 plus two 60 dollar
extensions, etc.
Everything else is a lot more than you want to spend, Denise!

Denise,

If you live in the US I was going to tell you to check either QVC or HSN as
they had one on last night, but I just checked their websites and it's not
there so they must have sold them all out.

Hugs,

Nora

Thanks Nora... I'll take a look and see if I can at least get a description

I'm having a little frustration with reading the newsgroup... If I log on
using Outlook Express and download the newsgroup, I see your (Nora's) reply
only... if I log on through Google Groups, I see Noreen's reply only.

Ugh!

Denise

Lots of info at
www.burles.com
regarding knitting machines. KH -150 is a popular choice for hand knitters.

If you are willing to spend $400, I HIGHLY suggest an LK150 (I just
LOVE mine). If you don't want to start that high, then I agree w/the
USM (love both of mine.. but my LK is my favorite - a bit better made
IMO and not as high of a learning curve).

You can see both machines he

The owner is great with answering questions & assisting her customers.
and there are forums there as well if you need other opinions.
