Archive of Thread: Hello from Sweden Back

3 years ago
Hi, I’m Brita in Umeå, Sweden. I’m new here and want to learn as much as I possibly can. I don’t know anyone who’s into machine knitting so there is no one to talk to about these things.
I also want to explore the pattern section as I always find converting difficult.
I’ve had an LK150 for a couple of years and now I have a brand new SK280. 
How I found this site? Not sure, probably through YouTube, but I’m glad I did!

Hi, Brita,
I'm in Washington State, America.  I am on my second SK280 in 30 years.  I wore the first one out.  It's still my go-to machine, even 'tho I have 4 other machines, three of them electronic.  Did you get a ribber?  Good luck.

Hi Brita!  Welcome!
You have an advantage with your experience with your LK150 ... it will make it easier to master the SK280.

No, no ribber yet. Maybe some day but not now.
Yes, I really like the LK150 and now I’m also very glad I’ve had it first. I guess it’s easier to learn with a larger gauge and the LK150 is very versatile, a great little machine.
