About 20 years ago I bought one of the original Bond knitting machines and loved using it. It knitted up sweaters so quickly everybody that stood still long enough had one as a gift. It was perfect for plain knitting, a bit of lace, stripes and simple cables which meant I had the time to do complicated knitting by hand. Then we moved house and there was nowhere to set it up so it was packed away and stayed packed away all these years. My Christmas present from Leigh was furniture, to be a bit more precise he got me wooden stackable storage cubes for all my craft bits and pieces. 36 of them all together each one being 12" x 12" x 12". As we put it all together I realised that if it was set up sensibly the Bond would fit on top. Leigh didn't think I would still have all the bits but I tracked it down and had everything included the original instructions and pattern book so I set it up and am having the most fun relearning how to use it. I might even get to use up some of that yarn stash.
