Knitting Machines
Originally there were three brands of knitting machines imported into Australia
Brother Knitting Machines
Singer Knitting Machines
PASSAP Knitting Machines
Since 2000 the major suppliers stopped importing into Australia new Knitting Machines, saying the market was too small to warrant the investment.
There are new knitting machines that are manufactured in China that are being imported into Australia.
There are a few new Brother Machines still available with some Australian Brother Dealers.
For general information the following are the model numbers for Brother Knitting Machines:
Electronic Machines:
KH 970, KH 965, KH 950, KH 940, KH 930, KH 910 & KH 900
Punchcard Machines:
KH 894, KH 892, KH 860, KH 840, KH 836, KH 830, KH 820, KH 680
Parts for Brother Machines are still available and for older machines substitutes are available.
If you are interested in taking up machine knitting for the first time a good second hand machine might be the way to go. These machines range in price from as little as $50 to several hundred depending on the model and condition of the machine.
Dormani Yarns do not trade, sell second hand machines but Tony our expert on knitting can help you by advising what type of machine would be best for your requirements and what to look for in a second hand machine. Once you have purchased your machine Tony can also provide lessons on how to use your machine. |
