I’ve a Knitmaster 100, pre 1970s basic machine

Okay, there’s no ribber or lace carriage and I’m not sure if there are tuck buttons, but I love it anyway. My question (before I find the money to subscribe) is will I be able to work the patterns in your magazine? So far I’ve found no patterns anywhere at all that are basic enough for my wee machine. The second question is, do you know of any groups in my area? Being new to this craft and this area I kind of feel all alone. Anyway, I hope to hear from you, thank you in advance.

Hi Sarahjane

Your Knitmaster 100 is a 6mm mid-gauge machine and will knit DK yarns. Anne usually includes patterns for this gauge in each magazine and there is also information on how to convert the patterns to suit the gauge of your machine.

I think you will find the following website useful:
