I really should do a 970 course...not enough hours in the day or days in the year... one of these days.Diana L.

I am now looking for another brother electronic machine or possibly a studio/singer electronic. What would you recommend?

There is a whole learning curve, and I found it difficult to learn from the manual.<br /><br />I do have one video on the 970, and because a lot of people write me and say it's difficult to learn, I've been thinking of filming some classes. <br /><br />The 970 is feature-rich, though, a very deluxe machine.Diana L.

I have a 270.

After all, my laptop is Windows 7, so I need the new one for that.<br /><br />Electronic machines - primarily I use the Brother 270, 965i, 970, Passap E6, and I just got a Studio 560. I also have a Singer 9000 but I have done pathetically little with it. So many fun things to do, so little time!<br /><br />You're welcome. I have an audacious goal - I want to teach more machine knitters than anyone ever has. Sometime this year I should pass 1 million video views!Diana L.

(an article on DAK would be good to see)<br /><br />What electronic machines do you use (a continuation of this article with a breif summary of each electronic machine would be great)<br /><br />Your blog and U-tube videos have been so helpful. I recently took a machine knitting class and the instructor was very impressed with how much I knew. I owe a big thank you to YOU!<br />FlowerAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
