It's been a while since I worked on either machine, but I think that's the key.O!

A domestic machine is far more versatile! When I get around to it I'll post the swatch pictures and you'll see what I mean.steel breezehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18066511414876475930noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14180815.post-26520869190024720722014-12-09T15:34:03.813+00:002014-12-09T15:34:03.813+00:00Thanks for sharing this great adventure.
Any chan...Thanks for sharing this great adventure. <br />Any chance you could share your view on high and low butt needles in comparison to the needle positions Brother uses? Been trying to understand that bit for ages. <br />I'm always thinking you must be knitting different stripes of patterns if the needles won't move sideways ;-)<br />Thx<br />BenAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14180815.post-78748906108923559142014-12-09T01:48:51.357+00:002014-12-09T01:48:51.357+00:00Lucky, lucky you!!!
